Questions about Windows 10 upgrade - RADDY1993 - 06-25-2015

Guy's i was wondering about a few things concerning the upcoming update.

1) Once the upgrade is available will it download by its self and in what format will it be ? ISO

2) My Windows 8.1 is pre-installed so it activates from the Mobo i presume so will Windows 10 do the same ?

3) If i install the Windows 10 OS onto my PC will i be able to go back to my original Windows 8.1 and will activation be ok ?

4) Would it be best to dual boot between the 2 ?

Thanx in advance for any answers Smile
