I upgraded from 7 to 10 the other day. I don't like the fact that I have to sign into windows with my email password just to load windows. I wish I could just load windows 10 and then log into email and use my password. Kind of a pain... Microsoft Edge. Can't figure out why that is so important

 if I had the choice of buying a new laptop with Windows 7, I would have done that. I am not an early adopter of technology. I have worked in the industry long enough to know not to jump on the first release of anything.

I upgraded from 8 to 10 and I like it much better. Windows 8 was a huge improvement over 7, except for those stupid freaking tiles. Horrible mistake on Windows part. 8 was much faster. Now with the return of the start menu (I always used start8), 10 is a huge step up.

Just looked to see what were running. It's Windows 7
Very Fast No need to change. I use "Bit Defender" security and it has an easy Optimizer that cleans up (Disk - Registry - Privacy) after visiting sites. Boom Bam Bang and its done. Just a click of a button. No Parasites lurking in the background. Lets our machine run like silk |

I haven't updated yet. About once a year I reformat my computer and reload/update everything. Generally I do this in the winter, so that will be when I update windows. Hopefully, if there are any bugs, they'll be taken care of by then and it will be an easy transition.
