Windows 10 is NOT easy.

I have been running five boxes with Win 10 for years now without so much as a hiccup. My experience has been that Win10 is super easy, fast and rock solid.

Well I guess the Poster can listen to you sole expereince, or learn from 100,000 people who got HOSED by Microsoft in 2019.

FORBES 01/05: "Windows 10 begins 2020 hoping to turn a page on a bug-ridden 2019. Problems ranged from frustrating to limiting, chaotic to simply bizarre and Microsoft was even hit by a whistle-blower exposing the reasons for the increase in instability. But now 2020 is off to a rocky start as well.... 01/05

Just bought a system with Win 10 and absolutely love it. Was hesitant about 10 after the horror stories but it is really nice. Took a day or two to get comfortable with it after using Win 7.

I agree, I’ve supported PCs in an enterprise environment and for the most part Windows 10 is fine. I’ve had some painful updates but I had them on previous Windows versions as well. A lot of the complaints about Windows in general are blown out of proportion. Although some of the 1909 upgrades have been disastrous for some users.

Last month I broke down and I built my wife a new desktop PC and installed Win10. The first thing she said is that, “I won’t like Windows 10 put back the Windows I have on there now.” With Open Shell she really didn’t know the difference. I figured she’d baulk at the lack of Aero effects and the flat look of Windows 10 but she didn’t even notice that.

Just last week I finally broke down and upgraded my 85+ year old MIL’s PC with an in-place upgrade from Win7 to Win10 with Open Shell and she didn’t know the difference by the time I was done.
