A stable version of Windows 10 Creators Update will be available very soon and for those who do not have Windows 10 on their devices but want to upgrade can still be able to do so. Since the successor to previous Windows version was released in 2015, Microsoft announced that there are already more than 400 million downloads by September 2016. Today, there are more than half-a-billion downloads, not quite a record, considering that this not even half the number of Windows users.

However, those who have Windows 7 Enterprise, Windows 8/8.1 Enterprise and Windows RT/RT8.1 are not qualified for the free upgrade.
Windows 10 boasts of several features and one of these is the familiar Start Menu. With Windows 8, it has been replaced with Live Tiles which was somewhat confusing for those who have been used to the simpler menu. For those who do not have issues with Live Tiles, there is also the Metro interface which can be launched at the right side of the Start Menu.
