    Oh and I forgot to say the HI8 comes with a years free Office 365 which you can also install on your main pc under the same license, it gives you all the office programs + 1tb of one drive storage and 60 minutes per month of Skype calls. What are you waiting for?

    You can install programs anywhere you like with Windows, just not (yet) the apps from Windows Store. Also very easy to move the pictures, music, video and download folders to SD via context menu.

     

    I don’t want a year of MS office because I can have a lifetime of Libre Office for free.

    Easily the most useful tool I found was TouchMousePointer, which made the desktop usable without a mouse (which is still better, of course).

    One more thing under windows (since I use it under windows 10 more than 90% of the time) is that you can move the “common folders” (no idea how they are really called)

    Documents, Downloads, Music, Pictures, Videos; to be on the SD card instead of the eMMC.

    All you need to do is right click the folder -> Properties -> Location and change the “C:\Videos” to “D:\Videos”. Hit OK and tell it to transfer the existing files as well. Just do it for all the folders and it becomes really convenient as it no longer takes any space on your main drive.

    I have a great problem!!!

     

    I followed steps in video in first post:

    At first attemp it says tablet was rootwd so I push on button: “root again” then appears as root succesfull

    But apps didn´t can acces to root acces. So root was failed.

    I connect again with kingo and it sais that it is not rooted. So I push “root” again, but at the end “root failed”. Now always the same.

    I think the problem is that the KINGO SU called: “SUPERUSER” is instaled (but bad installed) and I can not unsinstall in any way. I have follow the Ishan procces (Temporal CMW recovery). All steps ok but everything the same at the end.

    I have even done a factory restore but no luck.

    So I have I fail SU app from KINGO  installed and now I can not root.

     

    Could someone help me please? 🙁

    Is it so easy to upgrade to Windows10? Is everything working as it should? I’m waiting for mine to arrive I’m the next days and I’m wondering if I can just upgrade, if I have to follow the guide in this forum or wait for an OTA update.

    FYI, you can move apps to the SD in Win10 1511 / 10586.71 the latest consumer build.
