Hello, Just over a year ago we bought an Inspiron 5348 with Windows 8.1 down here in New Zealand. It was OK for a few months and one day got totally messed up because I decided to follow instructions and update Windows - BIG MISTAKE. The computer was completely messed up. I got some help from Dell (Asia Pacific I guess) at the time, but in the end muddled through with reinstalling Windows 8.1 using Dell recovery program. The advice from Dell was to reinstall windows and update only once and never again (which seemed strange to me). Anyway it has been fine since then (without ANY updating).
My question is about updating to Windows 10 - is this going to be a problem with the Inspiron 5348 that has not been updated in months? I don't have the notice urging me to update to Windows 10 that I have heard about, maybe because I haven't done any updates since the big problem I had months ago.
So should I forget about trying to update to Windows 10? Or would it actually be an improvement or Windows 8.1 which appears to be rather unstable?
Cheers, Paul
