Download 'Classic shell'. Turns your 8.1 machine into windows XP or 7. It works a treat. |

No, cannot manage these newfangled gadgets. Stick to Pigeons. |

| Microsoft are updated my 8.1 with the new 10, when it's released, for free. I hope I'm not being foolish saying yes please...I have a great affinity for free stuff! |

| W10 is now available to download. I downloaded and installed it yesterday. Although early days, it's certainly an improvement on 8 and 8.1, but W7 or XP it certainly isn't.
I'll stick to W7 and an XP lookalike via 'classic shell'. |
