good morning to you all, i am running windows 8.1 and loving it, i have a icon on the booton of my screen for windows 10
which i did try but found it was slow as it just rides on top of my windows 8.1
how do i get rid of this icon? i have to be carfull when updates as its always a tick to download windows 10.
i don't want it, don't like it. its always there on my screen at the bottom right corner,
sometimes when i turn on my windows 8.1 windows 10 opens up as if i wanted it.
must be a way to get rid of this.
anyone know how?
