Windows 7 - Software you payed for.
Windows 10 - Software that cost nothing, and even when you don't want it - forces/tricks you into installing it.

That is something to be proud of.. clearly.

This guy said he set a video to uploading on youtube, steped away and came back to his PC installing Windows 10.

Well, not really. I've managed to install fresh copies of Windows10 on my devices and forced the activation in the terminal. Not that difficult. Next time though, I'm going to sandbox Windows as gaming OS in Linux because Windows 10 is frankly not a good OS.

I left my computer the other week and when I came back Windows 10 was installing. It's fine, but not crazy about upgrade just happening without my knowledge.

Not really surprising tbh. I don't even think most casuals know how to revert back so...
