Not a fan of their tile layout which they introduced on Windows 8. Looks like shit in my opinion. Most desktop owners would probably agree with me on that. They try and push phone/tablet designs on desktop users and it didn't work one bit. 

It also seems like they try and dumb everything down so much but it fucks with your ability to do the things you actually want to do.  I'm sticking with 7 till I get a new PC which won't happen till 2020 or so which is the time they will stop supporting 7.  Their annoying upgrade to Windows 10 update that they pushed onto computers that have install automatic updates is terrible.  The GMX program would crash constantly on boot up on my PC.  Why the fuck would I upgrade to 10 if your stupid upgrade program can't even work properely?  I had to delete the update that GMX came in just to shut it the fuck up.

I highly recommend that you do just that.

I've had nothing but problems with the upgrade.  I'm getting game crashes that crash the entire OS, which I didn't have with W7.  Probably has a lot to do with the graphics drivers but that's still an issue that came with W10.  I've had the restart freeze up issues I've alread mentioned.  I've had issues with Chrome not working--the icon even disappeared and I had to reinstall.  I had an issue where ALL browsers would freeze up if they were open at the same time, which is ridiculous.  My W7 media setup was through Libraries, which W10 tries to wipe away, meaning I have to go back and set everything up again.  W10 recently reset some of my folder settings and view settings, probably with one of the forced patch restarts they do, which annoyed the hell out of me.  The lack of customization on the start menu is also really annoying and a step back from W7.

I deeply regret upgrading to W10 from W7.  Problems aside, I don't even see anything that I would call a meaningful improvement.
