The new operating system brings several interesting features — including the new Start button, the Microsoft Edge browser or Cortana voice assistant integration — and has received very positive reviews so far, even though Microsoft still has plenty of bug squashing to do.

Furthermore, more Windows users who have preregistered for the update are waiting to upgrade, the company said. Microsoft revealed that the Windows 10 upgrade process will continue in phases over the coming days and weeks, suggesting there are plenty of users still waiting to receive the update.
