Copy and pasted from the last time I explained this:

"Personally I wasn't too enthused about "upgrading" because the last time they forced something like this on me (8.0 to 8.1 patch) it broke my HDMI out and I found out that the drivers hadn't been updated for that patch.  Every major OS change comes with little niggles like that and I'm ok with that if I choose to update my OS but if it's forced upon me those little issues become much more major in my mind.  

Thankfully the update to 10 (which I was tricked into) did not seem to break anything but my wife's computer's calculator no longer works.  Again, that's a small complaint, but if you're forcing an update on me and it breaks something I consider important for how I use my computer I'm going to be rightfully annoyed.  "

Sounds like your alittle unlucky. All my updates have not caused any problems for me and 10 has been the best one. Honesty its a superior OS to 8 and 7 and with DX12 being 10 exclusive, it boosts your PCs preformance without even upgrading it. The OS also uses less resounces which means better preformance off the bat. 

Win10 will get updates like any other OS. Little problems you get will be fixed over time.

Again free upgrade, and a better OS. No loss.

I did hear about Windows 10 having some problems with drivers/certain programs not working during the first few months for a fair few people so I can understand not wanting to upgrade right away for businesses and people that rely on their computer for work since it's better to be safe than sorry.

However from what I gather, it's getting better in that regards. Still not as stable as Windows 7 though.

My own personal opinion of Windows 10 is that it is a big upgrade in absolutely every way that I use it. I personally have not had a single problem with it but I don't use my PC to game much or to do much more than surf the web, use some apps/programs, and use Microsoft Office for school projects. My favorite thing about Windows 10 is that it is so quick. From a cold start to the time I'm on the desktop usually takes less than 15 seconds.
