Really happy with Windows 10 so far, more than a worthy succesor to Windows 7.

Too soon. The bulk of the updates will be towards UWP garbage anyway.

Not really had any issue with W10 myself, surfing the net daily fine, watching/listening to media type stuff all works fine, streaming from the XB1 works great and am loving the whole XB1 account W10 integration thing, have spybot installed for all the nosy stuff, long as those thing continue to work i don't think i will have any issues.
Fingers crossed.
XP-200
Somewhat over dramatic don't you think. lol

And Windows 7 is even less of a difference from Vista. To be honest on Windows 8 they removed a lot of useless bloat Windows 7 had, and added quite a few basic things which had been missing, like ability to open ISO and PDF files out-of-box. And while W8 was not perfect, things have been better in every release after that.
My point is: we are quite far already from Windows 7, and even further from Windows Vista and XP. Which is a good thing.

Spybot need to release an update for Cuttheline/SDAntibeacon. The devs say that Spybot 3 has these updates and may or may not do a standalone update for Antibeacon.
Since it's never been updated since 2015-10-19. I thought that it was still fully working as intended but apparently not.
I think those whom use SDAntibeacon don't get the AU update and have to do it manually. I haven't bothered myself because win10 is working fine for me but i worry AU will break things.
I know there is other tools that work well and have been updated recently like O&O ShutUp10 but i use SDAntibeacon and have had no issues with it.
I also know that MS is trying to implement telemetry/diagnostics hard wired into Win 10 so people have no way of stopping it with tools/programs. That will be a sad day for me but i'm told it'll still be possible to block it but only with Router Firewall.
MS is currently finding ways to bypass Windows firewall outbound rules and Hosts file blocks so unfortunately it'll be Router Firewall blocks only which only a tiny percentage of people will be able enough to do it.

I doubt SDantibecon is why AU did get pushed my uncles computer had SDantibecon used on it same as my systems and it was pushed to his about 2 weeks ago, I am no rush though compared to 1511 build this build has more things that annoy me
It can be blocked via firewall of router , example of how to block WIn10 stuff via router on asus/merlin wrt router

Always true - but the update process and bug bash pre-anniversary update works well. It sure is stable as hell now.
I agree - every update just gets better too.

I never used Windows 8/8.1, i went from Windows 7 to 10.
And it's the best move i made in years.

I wish they fix File Explorer crashing because of long file names.

Maybe they'll give us an option uninstall the store and other the other apps.
TheDeeGee
You can remove most with CCleaner.
The Store has to be removed with a Powershell command.

There is such a version but you'd have to be okay with using an unauthorized O/S :P
There's a group policy to enable long file names in 1607 version of win 10, this is despite enabling that policy?

I'd agree with you if I was still on Windows 7 - I dislike the idea of apps on a desktop OS.
But having become used to it I now find having apps on the desktop such as Facebook/Messenger very useful as it ties in with the action centre.
Then there's the games etc.
tsunami231
hahah the Store "app" uninstalled its self on my pc and I cannt re install it not that I need to, Unless the STore is actual need for the automatic app updates for the hand full I actual still have on my system

Infinite reboot? Haven't seen that since the days of the woeful Vista
Irenicus
Actually you can easily prevent any apps from being installed that you don't want.
