Thanks very much for the reply. Sorry about your current troubles.
Yes, I am on Windows 8.1. My son upgraded recently from Win 7 to 10 and he didn't report a problem so I was curious about this. He may have already had an MS account.

It didn't insist. The option to sign in using a local account (ie. the one you had before) was there ... I know ... that's the way I did it ... if you went through the custom install and opted out of the information exchange thingies and aren't using Cortana.

Look at my above post, it is seemingly related to OneDrive.

I never upgrade.
I always run fresh installs. No matter whether it's the OS, Office or VS.
Tends to work much better that way.

That's my tactic with women. Works pretty good.

And when I change them, it changes them back.
So I take full control of my HDD.
No I don't, it can't enumerate all the folders.
Are you kidding?? Seriously?
Why would anyone want to "upgrade" to this steaming pile if exrecement??
I really don't see the fascination to rush to install Win10.
You know, you brought this on yourself. You HAD to know this sort of thing would happen..
If it's not broken, fix it until it is

That's what I thought to start with as well... 
I'm still trying to get write access to my own files that persists past a re-boot.
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Now, try and use it.

I did. OK, just for one day, but it looks fine to me so far. The start menu is back, thank heavens, though the jump list thingies seem to be missing. It warned me about the media center being uninstalled when upgrading, but since I had forgotten the thing existed in the first place, that made no difference to me.
The search box is nice. I like the notification bar, but it looks a little Mac-y. It's a wonder they (Apple) aren't making any noise over that. I suppose tablet mode is good (if I had a Windows tablet, but the only ones I've got are Aspirin)
I'm sure there will be plenty of things that will bug me, but that is to be expected since the UI is different. Since all our clients will eventually use it, I am definitely going to get a head start so I'll know what to expect.

That sounds dangerously similar to the "Look everyone, no hands..." words that have been uttered on many an occasion.

Well I didn't do anything, all the credit goes to Microsoft. Or the blame

I wrote about my experiences too earlier.
Upgrade to longer than I expected - however, things worked at the end.
