Windows 10

Only one real complaint with Windows 10 and that is that automatic downloads often have an adverse effect until the next download

Can't say I really like Win 10, still finding problems especially downloading photos from a camera. As I am self taught wish now I had stayed with Win 7.

I found photos difficult to understand, there are different settings. The album area is nicely arranged but to edit I now go into file explorer (find it on top left of start up screen) and edit as I used to do in "pictures." Editing is much more limited in the new album viewing area. I still don't find it that easy but I'm getting there.

I have had not problems with 10 since downloading it in April and downloading photod from ipad amd iphone a doddle.  I like it but I also like a challenge.

Downloaded last week from Windows7. Same as Sell, not had any problems YET!!!.....

Upgraded from Windows 7 to 10 a couple of weeks ago. I've been holding off upgrading to allow for 12 months of tweaks/service packs to come in first.

The upgrade was painless and whilst I'm not bowled over by Windows 10, it does boot quicker and all of my previous applications and games still work fine.

For me I made the right decision, especially as the security support for Win7 will end in 2020.

To those who have upgraded - 

Does anyone use Office 2003 (all elements)?

Microsoft Money?

Photoshop Elements 13?

Weather Display (weather station data programme)?

Crystal Reprts 2008?

Family Historian?

I run these on my Win 7 Desktop - and with a bit of tweaking got them all running on my Laptop (8.1). I am reluctant to lose any of them.

Windows 10 is an abomination and a violation of your human rights.  It is spyware not an operating system. It is designed to spy on you to harvest as much information about you as it can which Microsoft can use and "share with their partners", i. e. sell to anyone without your expressed permission.  If you have not opted out of the 13 pages and one website of "hidden" options you have given Microsoft permission to read all your emails, use your microphone and camera to watch and listen to you, collect your passwords, track and use algorithms to collect information on websites you use (banking? Doctors? Shopping? etc.)

They have turned Windows 7 and 8.1 into Malware to force you to move to Windows 10.

If you don't believe me ask yourself why they gave you a new operating system which they would previously have sold for £100. Finally, read the computer press or Google "Windows 10 is spyware".

Write your comments here...Excellent post WB. Most Win 10 users are totally unaware of Microsoft's hidden intentions. The Computer press have been suggesting the harvesting of user information by Win 10  for many months now.

Also Microsoft have allegedly planned to have a massive Win 10 upgrade-- just before the "FOR FREE" offer terminates. It is called Redstone and it is rumoured that Microsoft are to drop key Win 10 features during this massive upgrade.

Back to the quill pen and a rider on horseback then? (I expect they opened the occasional letter even then.)  Everything we do on the web is traceable by someone, somewhere. Windows 10 is no exception.
