Thanks

It will probably show when you run executable again. It would give you an option to uninstall (if installed).
This leads to potential conflict, as after upgrade to Win 10 keys will be different.
Which version of Loader did you use?

Teamviewer FTW

Windows Loader v1.95 by Daz

Perfect. Going to pirate Win7 for the upgrade process.
The last version I used was 2.2.1, is using the same mechanism inserting generic OEM certificate.
BTW, The latest version is using different mechanism (for Win8.x), it requires Internet connection to activate.

Will see if the ones I activated with Windows Activator makes the cut.

Yeah Daz loader 2.2.2 works. Even Windows 2.1 KMS activation works.

I just installed Windows 10 and already I have an issue...
Things arent diplaying correctly. The below picture is my desktop at the moment, which is the most obvious example (task bar and recycle bin icon), but there are also a few other items which arent displaying as they should. How do I fix this?

^ what is not displaying like it should?

Its not what you imagine, I wouldnt keep that on my desktop...
Im trying to fix how the taskbar displays? Im pretty sure the search icon, internet exploror (what ever its called now) and the windows app store icon, as well as the entire bar itself arent displaying correctly?

looks fine to me

 

[Rouxenator]

Select what icons to display on your desktop ?

 

[Just_Ice]

I may have just had myself a blonde moment... I think what I was comparing to was people with an opaque add-on for windows installed.
It just didnt look natural to me, but news to me is that the task bar is no longer actually meant to be transparent.

How I thought it would look vs how mine does actually look:

looks fine to me

This is in options, you can change.

This is in options, you can change.

Where in options? I scanned through the settings but didnt find anything relevant to this?

Check your graphics driver as it wont allow transparency if you are on the standard windows VGA driver.

Sorry, it is an option in my preview copy:
Settings -> Personalisation -> Colours

Yes, it depends on the driver and whether Windows is activated or not.

How do I choose which updates to download through Windows Update? I'd like to not download and hide stuff like Visio Viewer updates, for example.

I'm on 10 Pro.

Also, anyone else's taskbar flickering intermittently? Almost looks like it's refreshing.

riiight. display driver install loop has been stopped. Now everything just works :erm:

Had to boot with low res video driver and just let it hang.

How did you stop the loop?

 

[Necuno]

How did you stop the loop?

Something like this:
Start pc > advanced boot options > reboot to select options / select low res video

I was about to search and destroy via nvidia removal tool from guru3d when I saw it finally went and installed the driver.

Then just restarted and it was on the latest one and no further looping
