It was 1 year ago today the Insider Program started. Give your thoughts on the Program so far. How many of you are still in the Program ?
I like insider program I started using it exactly year ago that was the time when I installed my first copy of Windows 10, when I installed it for the first time I found that windows is sending loads of data out and there are tones of apps an average person would never use. So I thought I will clean my fresh installed copy of Windows 10 it took me about two weeks to clean it up block data disable remove tasks and services. I was happy about my insider windows 10 I made it look the way I wanted work the way I wanted and send data only what I wanted, two weeks later Microsoft released a new insider build and I was curious about new features so I thought hell I will have to try it, formated my old insider build and installed new one what I found is that newer build had even more apps sending data put more crapware and scheduled tasks, so thought I just have to clean it, it took me about two weeks to make my newer copy of Windows insider feel look and work the way I want without data being sent out, then few weeks later they again released newer build and I just couldn't sleep wanted so much to try newer build, thought hell I just have to try newer build see new features, formated my ssd and installed newest insider build I think it was the third one. Things that changed was mainly cortana, she has got first male voice, disgusting! I couldn't stand it couldn't wait for updated windows 10 Insider. I of course have cleaned my newest windows and made if feel and look the way I want and disabled data etc. I wasn't war no few weeks later they released newer build and cortana was finally back to normal I have formated ssd and installed newest build had to again clean everything up and I was just happy. I do that up till today formating installing newest copy of my windows 10 Insider and always finding some new things I think it was the last build when cortana got back again male voice. Long live insider and Microsoft what we all would do without you.
I joined the Insider program the day the first build came out. I used my dad's email because MS wouldnt let me join because I was younger than 18. When the Consumer Preview came out, I joined using my MSA. Now I run at least one copy of W10 RTM on all my devices. I'm still in the Insider Program but I get the Preview build in a VM. I hate that I can't automatically activate preview builds unless you have an activated RTM build. but, nevertheless Happy 1st year anniversary. Hope MS creates an elegant and working OS.
