Now, nowhere on my PC, and I mean nowhere, is my DVD/CD drive recognised as existing. There is no DVD drive showing in Device Manager or in Settings>Devices.

My FREE upgrade seemed to work well but I found several glitches including the above. Most annoying for me is not being able to set a PIN password when logging in on ex-Windows 7 Home Premium upgrades followed closely by the upgrade messing up my folder permissions (due to setting up an MS account). Top tip, if anyone says you must run a 'clean install', ignore them. Don't give up. My FREE upgrade seemed to work well but I found several glitches including the above.

When I did an upgrade to 10 from a Win 7 Home on an old laptop, it defaulted to a local account. When I switched to a Microsoft account in Settings, I automatically got the PIN associated with the MS Account. It also brought over the same desktop background as used on my other machines.
