    Is it Windows 8 or 10?
    « on: August 31, 2015, 06:35:57 PM »
    I kept seeing the popups for updating to Windows 10 for free. I have a laptop I don't use much so I decided to update to Windows10 from Windows 7.There are no problems with the operating system. When I run Bel arc advisor it tells me I have Windows 8. When I turn the computer it ask me if I want to use Ubunta or Windows 10. The computer tells me the operating system is activated. Also the updates are for Windows 10. Is Bel arc advisor wrong?

    1) Go to Control Panel  -  System to see which OS you have

    2) Make sure you have the current release of Belarc Advisor

      I checked the properties on my computer and I have windows 10. I updated Belarc and it showed I had W 10. Thanks for the help.
