    Yup, no luck without PID.txt, it's asking to input key. I'll try ei.cfg way. As I understand, a normal TP can't be converted to Enterprise ones, right?(because as you said, the normal TPs have Professional index and Core index, neither of which may not be same as Enterprise ones?!). Does, Enterprise TPs have PID.txt, if so I guess we can copy that key into normal TPs key(unless Enterprise TPs don't have a generic key as normal TPs).

    Sorry for noob questions.

    The feedback system is amazing.

    All of my longstanding issues with Windows already have tons of votes.

    Maybe there's hope for a truly collaborative Windows that meets the needs of power users.

    Do they have a "GTFO of the cloud" feedback option?

    Just a heads up, including ei.cfg has worked, it even presented a screen with an option to choose, 'Technical Preview' or 'Technical Preview For Consumer'(not sure the same prompt is displayed for normal installation, i.e, without this ei.cfg).
    Code:
    [Channel]
    Default
    
    [VL]

    Yes, you are right, but I was asking if that key is a generic one or not?

    Just tried to remove the watermark from Technical Preview Pro Edition. But I could not remove it completely.
    I changed the following files: C:\Windows\Branding\Basebrd\en-US\basebrd.dll and C:\Windows\System32\en-US shell32.dll.mui with the .dll files someone provided in this thread.
    Now looks like this :

    How can I completely remove the remaining watermark ? :weeping:
    I have Pro version not Enterprise.

    no its used for activation, everyone gets the same key with Win10, BUT you can use Win8.1 ent GVLK keys with Win10 to activate.

    to super user I found that you have to drag window left and do not release mouse button and then drag windows to up and it will be up left, the same for other screen places

    Are all Windows notifications in the lower RIGHT now, or is that just where Outlook 2013 decides to put them suddenly (Outlook 2013 uses Windows notifications, not its own system).

    Also, the Win-X menu always used to be in the lower-left regardless of where your taskbar was. Now it seems to follow the taskbar, which might make sense but isn't good for those used to it in the lower left. Any way to change it back?

    I had the same problem when I followed that guide, I ended up downloading the ones that Lenix uploaded (forums.mydigitallife.net/threads/57024-PRE-DISCUSSION-Windows-10/page136?p=954620&viewfull=1#post954620) and opened them with resource hacker and copy & pasting the edited text in to the en-GB ones.

    Someone checked performance in games? I wonder if it's worth moving from W7 to W10 - i mostly use my laptop for gaming.

    I play nothing demanding; the stuff I do play though show about the same performance.

    Just something to look out for if you use either in games, but FMOD and IndirectSound (DirectSound Emulation) seem to be a bit problematic.

    So you were able to completly remove the watermark ?
    I tried resource hacker but did not find the relevant text.
    Do you have the Pro version and could you upload your dlls maybe or does this not work ?
