Windows 7 to Windows 10 ?
-
@SPlatten I remember you mentioned somewhere else that your host system is macOS? If that's the case Vbox with Windows 10 guest os can be seriously broken. I tried that two years ago - editing the text in QtCreator was next thing to impossible, every key has been entered at least twice and it was laggy. Very laggy. It may be that they fixed it in VBox, as well they might not.
I ended up using Parallels Desktop as VM solution for Windows.
Debian worked sufficiently well though. -

@SPlatten Parallels is a great solution for macOS, I use it extensively for over two years now. Previously I worked on Debian and used VBox for Windows. When I switched to macOS (I needed to include macOS in my works) and VBox became a no-go. But - Parallels is paid solution but offers much, much more than Vbox ever did.
It might be that for your needs VBox will suffice, I never tested it once I discovered that I can't run QtCreator properly. -
@artwaw , thank you, I might just buy it on my company....Windows is such a load of crap, just trying to get to Windows 10 update assistant page and Windows Explorer (Not Responding), all to familiar...This is one of the reasons I move to Apple, this kind of thing just doesn't happen.
I've just installed Chrome and gone to the link and now the update is in progress.

@Ralston528 , I did manage to install Windows 10 on VirtualBox, I haven't been back to it for a while now and I can't remember the PIN I set-up, unfortunately when I click "I forgot PIN" its doing nothing that resembles any of the guides I've found online.

@Heidenreich
Hi. I can see this is your first post on this forum. I should like to ask you a question about your experience of this upgrade. Would you be kind to post another reply here so that I can tell if you are still around, and human?! -
