I upgraded to win10 just as the first ones got to upgrade. I really like the layout and everything. But It's a little bit small-buggish for me. but nothing serious I like it!

What I don't like tho is that I found out microsoft collect information about EVERYTHING on your computer and life. sms and telephone if you use online/skype, contacts, facebook information, calender, events, keystrokes on your computer (KEYLOGGER!?) etc.. But its possible to turn off at least 95% of that. If someone wanna do it then here is the guide:

Also I disslike that there are things you can't not turn off anymore like windows update and windows defender (you can turn it off temporarly, then it turns back on again)

Go to Services and disable "Windows Update" service.
To disable Defender, create a Registry key "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows Defender\Real-Time Protection" and add a DWORD entry "DisableRealtimeMonitoring" with the value "1".

yeah, my friends upgrade to windows 10, but he just used two hours, and then recover windows 7. But you can try it, he said that windows 10 exists some bugs.

If I would know your friend said there are some bugs I wouldn't have installed it.

I've been working on a tool to lock down Windows (7-10) from privacy concerns. I should have version 1 ready pretty soon. It's based on a tried and true method people use for Android apps on rooted phones as well as something new I came up with.

Yes, I have upgraded my Windows 8.1 system to Windows 10 for three week. Windows 10 is very nice. The only thing to me about Windows 10 is that I forgot Windows 10 password, then I can't login my comptuer. But now I have sloved this problem by using a Windows Password Key. So I need to say, Windows 10 is worth to upgrade.

Sticking to win 7 for now. Besides the speed which is a nice thing, i don't really like sharing my privacy.
I`m gonna have to wait and see what happens in the near future.
