Win10 has been more stable for me than Win7.
I’m no MS plant. Just stating a fact.

Me no plant, neither.

It makes it easier to find many settings of interest to the non-administrator type of user. And, it’s rock stable. I’ve had memory leaks on a few programs, but that’s not an OS problem. I don’t think I’ve had a blue screen in the several months that I’ve used it.

My daughter’s computer was upgraded. I then had to set a whole bunch of settings to keep it from sharing every moment with Microsoft - and I don’t trust it not to do so anyways. I’m going to switch an old laptop to Linux to see if I like it.

All updates are shut off on my Windows 8.1 laptop.

I upgraded an old netbook - Win7 “Starter” with only 1MB RAM.

Not only is the netbook more stable but noticeably faster, too.

My current Win8.1 Ultrabook is next on upgrade schedule.

I’ve never had problems with windows 7- no freezes, no blue screens of death- no driver issues etc- been running it for years- winxp used to act up some- and windows 98 wow- really bad- lots of issues-

Been very happy with windows 7- windows 10 just seems like a massive spyware program
