   AZ>Win 8 was the version that changed everything.... Win 10 is an attempt by   
   AZ>Microsoft to   
   AZ>recognize that Win 8 changed to many things too fast for a user base that wi   
   AZ>take many years to transition to touch-screen systems, while maintaining a   
   AZ>sense that the touch-screen user interface is the direction they want to go   
   AZ>the long run.   
      
   AZ>My biggest complaints with it:   
   AZ>-- I don't find the Start Menu particularly useful. (Then again, the   
   AZ>last time I was relatively happy with the Start Menu was with Windows 2000)   
   AZ>-- While the Settings/Control Panel is better integrated than it in   
   AZ>Windows 8, it still is disjointed - with 'advanced settings' for most items   
   AZ>jumping to the old-style Control Panel items.   
      
   I could never could get used to the Win7 Start menu so installed the   
   program "Classic Start" which presented 3 options. I chose win XP look.   
   That was the First tweek I made to Win 10
