And I don’t have Windows 10, nor do I want it.

After following the 10 threads and dealing with the wife's 8 laptop issues, you do not want anything to do with 10. & runs quite well on my desktop with updates turned off. Old laptop does fine on XP for the few times I use it. Slow, but what can you say for such old hardware.

If you you have 7 running smoothly, sit back and use your computer as a tool, not like a fetish like the other team does.

I read several different news sites, newspapers, write and get email, and that's about all I use the laptop for. I have Windows 7 and am happy with it.

I'm just worrying about losing my pictures and saved stuff.
