    Windows 10

    Just updated from Windows8 to Windows10.

    Faster to start and a lot easier to navigate the system.

    A positive experience so far

    I have been waiting for others to try it and report on ease of use and any dislikes or bugs.

    My only problem so far has been with trying to save a file to a particular directory. Go through the process of selecting a drive, then a folder then a sub folder, can some times take minutes to finally get there and allow save. Have given up a number of times when it seemed "stuck"and rebooted to go through the process again.

    You should also go through EVERY setting to see how much of your life they want to know about. As an example ,look at Windows Update>Advanced Options>Choose how updates are delivered, they want to use your computer in a sort of pier to pier way to share updates, Bastages!

    I've held off till recently, and stayed with 7 . Windows 8 was another disaster, as it was another failure for MS like Vista was.
    Windows 10 however is promising and growing on me so far, not that it is "that" much different to 7 as it blends some windows 8 stuff in it but yeah it is not too bad. I run several systems and it has yet to fail me once. I find it to be very stable thus far.
    I've just finished building and delivering 8 customer systems, and they specifically asked for windows 7 instead of 10 or 8 so, some people out there are still not sold.
