I’m not sure I want to upgrade to Windows 10, do I have a virus?

been trying Linux distros lately, and they are simply awful- nowhere near as polished as windows- always freezing up- etc- I’ve wasted more time trying to get programs working in Linux than I care to- reminds me of early versions of windows- pre 98- only worse lol-

Sorry- but Linux IS very frustrating and I’ve had to waste many hours over the last few weeks just trying to get basic things done- tried installing their awful games, none worked because I have a logitec mouse and hp keyboard apparently- and documentation online is very scarce for Linux related problems- I ran into what hsoudl have been a simple problem to fix, and could not find the info to fix it-

With windows, I’ve only had to install it, everything works- I don’t have to go into command line codes to fix, etc- programs work- games work- everything is all pretty much automatic now- everything just works- (I’m sure there are still some programs or devices that don’t BUT you can at least find documentation on workarounds- documentation that doesn’t include terminology that only a geek would understand- I don’t want ot spend a few years learning geek-speak just to keep a geek OS like Linux working proper- some might be into that- but not me- I am too old to deal with it- perhaps if I grew up with Linux but not at this stage of the game
