I always to clean installs, no update since that slows everything down. So far, five Windows 10 installs, not once have I experienced issues with them so maybe I'm just very lucky :).

Oh yeah a windows 10 fresh install would be issue free now, the problem with a clean install of win7 is that the OS came out in 2009 which means there is close to 7 years of updates which it needs (if you're installing from old media, some newer installation disks for it would have some of the core updates pre installed) but yeah there are a few core updates like one which is an actual update ... to windows update, which of course is required to install the rest of the updates. I get paid a commission based on use of the word update!

As for windows 10, on most things it works perfectly, the places where it doesn't work... it doesn't work in the most dramatic way, be it a loss of user data or just a complete loss of functionality, more common on laptops I find than on desktop PCs for some reason, guessing issues with proprietary motherboards and cards.
