    Have to love Microsoft! My son actually built his own computer. So he needed this product to be able to complete the process. The computer really works! We have had no problems so far. He uses the computer for gaming and school work, so he can easily use his computer now for both. Customer service was helpful with the purchase

    Needed to buy it for new system build. Its windows 10 what more can i say. Its on a thumb drive. I was surprised because i installed a dvd rom thinking it was going to be on a dvd. So needless to say i have a dvd rom installed and i think i used it for the motherboards install drivers that were on a dvd rom.

    It is what it is. Windows 10 OS on a USB. Was able to give new life to an old friend. Hard drive had crashed & needed a bootable OS install medium. This did the trick and my friend is alive! Easy to use. Just need BIOS access to change your boot device to USB. Once installed, change your boot device back to drive0.

    imply put, Windows 10 is an operating system (OS) like no other and the most versatile OS to date. Unlike the competition, it consistently brings in new features and support that reach far beyond the traditional PC, thanks to Microsoft designing it to receive semi-annual yet still very tangible updates for free, instead of rolling out a completely overhauled OS every few years.

    Husband upgraded his desktop and needed a new copy. Usually do a digital download with items like this but the USB/physical copy of this was super quick and easy, so probably will continue with this format in the future. In store pick-up was super fast too.

    Full version and came on a USB drive - No DVD!

    There are licenses of Windows 10 - OEM and full. The OEM gets tied to a machine and ends up not really being yours while the full version gives you freedom. They do a poor job making this clear. If you see it cheap, it’s probably OEM. Delivery on USB is excellent since nobody buys a DVD drive for a new PC anymore.

    Windows 10 Home

    We needed to have Windows 10 Home for our old computer. The old computer is slow, however, we are able to use the DVD burner & the OS needed to be changed. Windows 10 Home can be used on the our old computer and we don't have to purchase a new one and we have the protection from Windows 10. This is a better way to reuse old equipment, because the newer computers don't have DVD burners or RJ-45 or you would have to buy additional equipment to use the USB-C jacks to attach a DVD, etc... We are familiar with our PC computer & it's not that hard of a learning curve to go to Windows 10 from say XP or even Vista! Yes, there is a learning curve on Windows 10, but it doesn't take a lot of GB space on your computer vs Windows 7 or Windows 8.

    Bought this as we were losing Microsoft Support for our operating system. A bit leery that it would be very complicated, but it was extremely easy and very straightforward. Been up and running for a few weeks now with absolutely zero problems or issues. Best Buy rep was great on initial purchase with information and advice.

    Great product! I have used Windows 10 before, and have always enjoyed it. I needed to COMPLETELY format a computer and start from scratch. Thankfully, with Windows 10, I did not need to search for any drivers or anything! It was all on the flash drive!
