I have upgraded 6 computers, most of them Windows 7, but a few 8.1’s as well. Not a glitch or a problem. Just my experience.
My problem has been with outdated programs not supported by Windows 10. Many of them.
I upgraded to 10 from 8, and it was an upgrade. Windows 10 is actually better for backward compatibility on many old favorite computer games, like Age of Empires and Panzer General.
I’ve had a very similar experience. I’ve upgraded four laptops and 2 desktops 6 months to 10 years old, various brands and software configurations. differing versions of office (2007 pro and 2010 pro) full installs. MS Project and Visio Pro 2007 and 2010. All sorts of other programs. Windows 7 and 8.1, various AV programs. The only programs that haven’t worked were some AV (which a used MS Security Essentials to replace) and my HP Printer software. The HP software had an updated version that worked fine.
Frankly I’m starting to wonder how many people are experiencing problems due to having some really crappy “Free” software on their PC’s or might be just spreading FUD.
The date and time numbers on my Windows 10 screen lock page are funky. I have never seen them before. No other problems with the upgrade.
Got a fix? I haven't been able to find it mentioned anywhere.
