I bit the bullet and bought a new HP computer with Windows 10 in March.
The changeover and learning experience from Vista was not as bad as expected and after a month or so I had everything working on a new wireless network (Comcast, Grrrrrr) and able to use all 3 printers from either the new Win 10 computer or the old Vista computer.
Yesterday, MS forced a major upgrade of Win 10 that changed everything. Yes, I know, I could, perhaps should, have turned off automatic upgrades but left it on so as to receive automatic upgrades to Windows Defender.
The upgrade changed the user interface, making it more difficult to find things that I use routinely, such as Windows, Explorer, Settings, Printers, etc. Hint: Windows/x is your friend with Win 10 but I had not found a real need to use it previously. I also lost all of the network printers.
Has anyone else experienced this "new" upgrade, and does anyone know if the user interface can be changed back to the Win 7 similar Start interface?
Grrrrr.
Mac next time.
