The “CAPTCHA” step is especially difficult and annoying. You cannot change the display intensity until after a successful logon. Dell’s default on display intensity is dimmer than is desirable and, at least on this tablet, it is difficult to see the contents of some of the logon fields. Fortunately, it is possible to defer this step which is what we did. It is a typical “cart before the horse” problem. In our case, the connection is by WiFi and there would normally by no way to initiate this without having been logged on to a running version of the OS.

The update requirement depends on an operational connection to the Internet. The first tasks on initial start-up of the OS are to check for updates and to provide logon information. There was no requirement for user responses during the process. The installation process was quick, there were no error messages or any obvious problems.

It was very nice to be able to preserve the current application programs and drivers and to do the installation from “inside of” the old OS.

This was an unusual experience for me because the typical requirement is to do a clean install from a bootable device that is read on computer power up.

The Windows 10 installation asks if one wishes to keep the existing application programs, drivers and other current files. Windows Explorer was used to display the USB files and to select and execute “Setup”. The Rufus generated USB Memory Card was inserted into the Venue’s USB 3.0 port.

It works well for most file types that you’d want to preview, but GIFs might take an extra few seconds to load. Unfortunately there’s not many options to customize the app, but it does also support ctrl+ mouse wheel to zoom in on documents and PDFs and you can always quickly close the preview by hitting escape or move to the next document by hitting up / down. It works just like the macOS Quick Look feature, and you can hit enter to open in the default app, or choose a different app to open the file in. QuickLook does exactly what its name suggests, allowing you to preview most file types from within File Explorer. It’s a useful feature that Microsoft hasn’t brought to Windows 10 yet, but a new app in the Microsoft Store now offers the best way to get this macOS feature on a PC. If you’re a Mac user you’re probably used to just hitting the space bar to see a quick preview of a file.
