Ok, Thank-you

I want to stay on WIN 8.1. I don't know what is the update it is asking me to install.. It seems that a 5 - 10 minute update isn't trivial! I am concerened it is WIN10 which I definitely don't want to install. In the past I installed WIN 10 on the phone and didn't like it at all partly because...

A small firmware update taking 5 - 10 minutes to install???? I don't understand how it can be small if it takes 5 to 10 minutes to install. It's more likely a preparation update for WIN 10. Can anyone confirm this please. Thanks, Daniel

Hi N La Rue, thanks you answered my questions. Looks like I'll need the windows recovery tool to revert back to 8.1. I installed Windows 10 and cannot use Here Drive and VPN or Eduroam do not work on Windows 10 where I am so am reverting back.

How do I do this? If windows 10 phone is halted from being downloaded does this mean that no other updates can be installed for Windows phone 8.1? Therefore, is there a way to block the Windows 10 phone update and allow for more Windows 8.1 updates?

Hello, I have had an email this morning in my mailbox from Microsoft saying that Windows 10 Phone is now available to upgrade on Windows 8.1 phones. When I upgrade to Windows 10 will I loose Here Drive and Here Maps as these are my go to GPS navigation apps which I think are very good. If Here...

It appears to be working now! It is Win RT so I cannot install another browser.

I was talking about the browser. I'll try and install the app. It looks like a BBC iplayer app is not in the store. SO I am left with the browser, which has stopped working!
