So fucking tired of Windows 10

PSA: Do not get Windows 10
I won't even begin to list all the problems, but no more than 5 minutes ago my entire os froze and crashed ALL my work BECAUSE I RENAMED A FUCKING TEXT FILE??? WHAT? Is a 4.8ghz core i7, 16gb ram, and a gtx 770 not enough to rename a fucking text file?
Worst OS ever. Never seen one with so many problems off the bat, can I go fucking back to Windows 7 or is that not allowed?

Its free because they spy on every single thing you do and sell that to whoever has the money.

Precisely why I never upgrade Windows. It ends in disappointment and frustration far more often than appreciation.

The biggest issue is nothing works.... not even plug and play things. I had to find drivers on some shady website for my speakers that are plugged in a 3.5mm audio jack. What?
I have had to reinstall everything. No, not for their window's 10 updates, it's just what Windows 10 is forcing me to do. If I try to open a file, any file, it will say " x file has stopped working" and then it deletes it. I have lost some sensitive info because windows is all fucked up. I tried restoring but it just happened again.
Seriously though, do they at least let you go back to your previous version if you got the free upgrade? This is bullshit

I haven't used windows in 5 years so I can't really give you any advice
I always think about switching back from Mac but I really don't see any reason to. Especially when I see people bitching all the time about how shitty it is.

Don't think so. And someone even mentioned after trying to go back, certain things were fucked up on the older version of windows. Not sure how that's possible if you reformat and do a clean install but

It also took a week before my bottom task bar unfroze. Even after several restarts it was just totally frozen. If I pressed the windows key on my keyboard it would open the start menu but you couldn't click it to open.

I put windows 7 disk from my laptop on to my old dell from 2007 or so and it installed worked then claimed it might be pirated so I just can't have a background screen saver but everything else works fine. I've had this computer for EVER!! I made sure to place so many extra hard drives in it that I will never jam up the thing. Only noticeable glitch has been flash player crashing which probably has nothing to do with my physical computer.

Yeah I got windows 7 when it came out in 2009 from nearly day 1 and it was ALWAYS stable and it was the best OS I have tried. So easy to use, so clean, and so RELIABLE!
They did everything right in windows 7 in my opinion.

10 is not free.
Well, IT is, but you have to pay a monthly subscription if you want Solitaire, media player, or drivers for a DVD.

I didn't read the entire thread but no matter what, this sums it all up.
_______________________________________________________________________________
I gave it quite a bit of consideration myself late last week and decided against it. We've all heard the saying "nothing in life is free". Well nothing changed here. With the rise of Big Data all the major corporations, as well as some of the small ones, are finding creative ways to spy on our habits. Microsoft is dropping a free OS in order to gain more of a market share while secretly profiting off your data.
Fuck. That. Shit.
I decided to do a fresh pave of Windows 7 with dual-boot Kali Linux V2 (which was just released today )
