Fine for me too.
I hated having to lose XP when it was no longer maintained and was not overjoyed with Win10.  Now I've used it for a year and a half I'm happy with it.  When I installed Win10 on an old Win7 machine it speeded up.

If you haven't downloaded  last year's Windows 10 "Anniversary Update" by June you will no longer get security patches.

I had no problems with Windows 10 - been running fine for over a year.
However, we are not talking about Windows 10.
What we are talking about is that when you install the Windows 10 Anniversary Update the problems start.
This is currently being rolled out and depending on the make/model of your PC you should get it anytime soon.
If you haven't had it yet then my advice would be to avoid it as the negatives far out weigh the positives.

Crashed mine too - wouldn't start up this morning. Something about no boot directory found. Turned it off, started up again & it was fine.
When I installed it yesterday got a message saying that it couldn't install because I had copyrighted music files stored. So I moved them to an external hard drive and reinstalled. Everything seemed to work fine yesterday and then I get another problem this morning.
Coming to Albufeira today so I won't be installing it on the PC I keep there.

Anyone installing it might find this site useful

Had an update today - Windows 10 Anniversary Update.
Took about an hour.
Not sure it was worth it as I can't see any significant changes.

Never had a problem with USB flash drives of whatever make.  Maybe I'm just lucky.
Perhaps the new update will solve the problem.]]> Sun, 15 Nov 2015 14:08:48 +0000 https://albufeira.com/forum/windows-10-to-install-or-not_topic9081_post94827.html#94827
