Upgrade to W 10 from W 8 NOT W 8.1
I have a silly problem. I run W 8 on my desktop computer but have never been able to upgrade to W 8.1 as I have never been able to open Windows Store, despite multiple solutions none of which have worked. The only solution of reinstalling W 8 has not appealed! I am happy with W 8 but would like W 10. With the free upgrade running out I am being exhorted to upgrade by Microsoft. Can I simply upgrade from W 8 or does it have to be from W 8.1? I have upgraded my laptop from W 7 but experienced dreadful problems e.g windows activation failing and not being sorted, although touch wood it is ok now. Also Microsoft warn me dire consequences of remaining with W 8, are these valid or is this project fear?!
