    Son was given a fairly new desk top from his employer with hard drive removed. Had an extra SSD drive and bought Windows 10 Home English for the computer. A great buy to get a New Desktop Computer for my son with very little expense

    Bought this to replace a drive on a work pc. The other drive failed and we didn't have the windows 10 key from the previous install. This came with a usb drive and install went smoothly. Recommended

    This is indeed a copy of windows 10. When it installed and updated it says we have windows 10 pro. It was expensive and later people told me I could have got it cheaper or free from Microsoft if I didn’t mind a few less features.

    Easy to install and use. The great thing about purchasing this instead of Newegg or any other online digit purchases is that I got the windows usb program and I won't have to worry about the windows key already pirated out to someone else.

    I've installed Windows since the 360K floppy disk days. I am very pleased as the install medium for windows has kept ahead or on par with current technology as we have been advancing. USB thumbdrive install is very painless and efficient.

    USB version. Got this in a very timely manner. Ordered it on a Sunday and think I got it on a Monday or Tuesday? Can’t remember exactly. Anyway, it’s windows on the USB. Perfect since my build doesn’t have a CD reader.

    This came in a pinch after my son's gaming pc had to be reset to factory settings. We did not have the original window's key, and this one helped us get windows on the PC up and running.

    No problems so far with upgrade even though we have a older version of Intel processor. For what we use our computer for it has not been a problem. We're mostly use our computer for email and documents. We don't stream or play games.

    I had a computer that had its hardrive fail. I had backup but did not have a copy of windows 10. Purchased it along with a new Solid state drive and what a difference. Fast, and a clean install. It is the way to go.

    It's the ubiquitous operating system that is not made by Apple. While it is under constant threat of virus and other harmful programs, nothing beats an Microsoft Windows when it comes to programs and GAMES available. Comes in an USB drive.

    The flash drive made it easy to install. I purchased Windows 10 Home because I upgraded motherboards. The version of windows that came with the prebuilt pc would not allow me to do a clean install after switching motherboards.

    I am helping my son build gaming PC and we needed Windows. We went retail to avoid some of the OEM hardware registration issues that can occur down the road. I like the fact we are no longer using DVD's to install a OS now.

    This is the full package with the option of upgrading or new install. I did a new install on a new drive. Set your flash drive as bootable restart the PC and your good to go, follow the prompts as it installs, it's just that easy.

    I wish I got this while Microsoft offered it for free. Other than that it’s the best OS Microsoft issues other than Windows 7. If you are a Windows 7 user you will not be disappointed with Windows 10. Easy install with zero issues.

    I needed another Windows 10 license for a second computer. I loved how easy it was to install and setup! Ordering the Windows 10 online and then picking it up about 30 minutes later was super easy!
