Windows 10 just came out and many have downloaded the OS. I must say, I downloaded the Windows 10 version immediately my system update prompted me to do so.
They have made some awesome improvement to the new Windows 10. The OS is faster now and it also took the look of Windows 7 and Windows 8 combine. So if you think you are going to miss the windows 7 or 8 look after upgrading, then your thinking is wrong.

What a lovely tutorial on Windows 10.
You know, Windows 8 also had similar problem. I just hope that they are not trying to scrap the hibernate option from the power menu fully.
I am also a fan of the hibernate power because like you, i use it too well often 🙂
Thank you so much for giving us the step by step with images to go along with.
Have a brilliant day and a lovel week

August 17, 2015 at 10:54 amHi Babanature! Thanks for sharing such great information. I was a bit scared and reluctant earlier to download the windows 10 but as you explained that it has the combined look of windows 7 and windows 8. Well also I liked the way you gave a detailed explanation to enable the hibernating option on it. Will sure download the windows 10 now. Would love to hear more from you in the future. Cheers.

The reason it was like that maybe; You Windows 7 is not genuine or you are directly installing the Windows 10 or its pro version.
Here is my suggestion that will surely help you: Simple download the file version of your pc found in this link http://onenaijablog.com/2015/08/how-to-activate-windows-10-without-using-crack-or-patch/ and follow the instructions.
and upgrade your PC from the previous windows to the Windows 10
