I have a Windows 7 laptop that I had not used or updated for over a year...I recently turned it on and got updates over several days IIRC. No problems...All worked fine. It took longer than usual of course.
I keep it for backup just in case. Put all my files and photos on a flash drive and updated those, too.
There were no annoying notices asking me to get Windows 10.
My newer laptop came with 10.
That’s good to hear. Thank you, MEG33.
