You can upgrade from an evaluation version of the operating system to a retail version, from an older retail version to a newer version, or, in some cases, from a volume-licensed edition of the operating system to an ordinary retail edition. (Microsoft website)

so Windows 10 Technical Preview can change to retail?

Waiting for the Consumer Preview here.

I think I will possibly install this next weekend as I am hearing things that this will essentially be the Consumer Preview in the end.

My windows 8.1 has started crashing daily with a 'DPC Watchdog Violation' error which I don't seem to be able to find a solution for so need to install 8.1 or 10!

What do you think of the icons as there are a lot of people slagging them off on Neowin?

My Win 10 TP to the Jan Build 9926 went fine apart from Windows Defender maxing out the disk at first boot for about 20 mins - and my Start Menu has gone. Trying a fresh install now. All on Hyper-V BTW if that makes any difference - anybody had the same issues?

They look pretty plain to me and the icons in the taskbar are to small.

I didn't have the 8gb free on my machien when it tried to update, but have now. I like the fact that the message suggested it didn't have to be on my c drive, but could be any permanent drive.
