Installed Windows 10 on my desktop. Will play it and update ;)
I really like it. Upgraded from 7.
I prefer 7 though I have been using 10 since end of 2015. Touch pad is lagging and some times it just stops / hangs. I'll revert back back to 7 if 10 still causing this bad experience. :P
I am still on Win 7-64 Professional and will stay there for probably a loooong time. With the MS antics of pushing Win 10 as they have, the installed 'spyware' ( OK not exactly spyware ), treating 10 as a service, the ad pushing that will happen, forced automatic updates, etc. I just can not see ever going to Win 10. In fact, once 7 gets long in the tooth, I will probably be forced to go to a Mac.
I have used this free tool for myself and for others. It helps if you do not want to migrate by choice or not, to Win 10.
Windows 10 When I Want It (http://win10wiwi.com/)
I installed it... I think in December as well.
It's not that bad. Personally I'm not a fan of squared interfaces, but I can get used.
On my laptop is a bit unstable due to the video card I think. One day I'll try to uninstall and install again the drivers, but not for the moment.
For the rest... yeah, a bit sluggish, especially the menu (actually the search function of the menu that at times it doesn't pick up and I have to open/close the menu few times until I can get any result from it), but the rest seems normal.
@emanuele if you are using nVidia, this will save you a LOT of headaches while uninstalling, trust me:

You can then re-install latest version on first boot, it takes no longer than 10/15 minutes, because the driver download is a bit huge, otherwise it's a breeze.
Moreover, the nVidia support itself pointed me to it, which means it's better than their own uninstaller, lol.
If using AMD/Intel, it claims to work for it as well, but I only tested it on nVidia.
IIRC is an intel-something, the one that was bundled with the Atom CPUs.
Atom CPU ;D Emanuele cares about global warming O:-)
Ugh... Well, I guess it will be an integrated Intel then...
/me doesn't really like laptop so he sticks with the one he received as gift a long while ago. xD
Tell me about it. We have an old Acer (Friends we run for him since he's not a computer person)
We also have a Samsung, nice one, but over at my father's place collecting dust, since the battery is shot.
But, I do have one I do use a lot, but it's not a PC, it's Android. XD
10 is slightly better than 8, though I still prefer 7. It is a bit sluggish at times, particularly on older machines.
I've had no problems with 10.
On my machine, and all I do, in fact, it seems faster for me.
Less memory hogging than 7 was.
With same loading at startup as did when running 7, I have 13% used memory now, compared to 20% in 7.
Seems that some programs, also release better under 10, too.
Hahahahahaha!!!!!!!
Yeah, I too have had times of setting to open in one app, then finding it changed.
However, on Windows and Android, I'm more into not setting a default, as I like to vary...LOL
Although, I also do have a nice little program installed to fight this exact issue. XD
And perhaps if they simplified the whole thing they wouldn't need so many updates to fix security stuff here and there... Sometimes (still Win 7) I find myself being told I don't have high enough permissions to perform certain actions, when I am the one and only admin... To get stuff to work I just go super-user when it does that crap -_- I hate that, same for Android, when I am not admin of my own device, oh ffs let me mess with my own thing will ya, OS-es?
I guess 10 works best with higher specs and newer machine. I am still missing that good old 7 days which I used since 2007 but not sure whether I want to restore it or otherwise.
