Like most Microsoft products, this is designed for the expert and not the home user. That said, one is forced to use it. Having stated thgat, it is better than any alternative product.

I'm not a fan of downloaded software. Very inconvenient. This has a DVD. I wipe my machine reghlarly to keep performance up. Apps tend to accumulate and sap performance. Win10/works well for me, as good as 7 and far better than 8. Waiting to see how it adapts. New features come without the need for a new opporating system.

I upgraded my computer and it wouldn't accept my older Win10 upgrade. It was running Ming fine for few days then it got crazy and needed the upgrade, then I had to buy it and installed it. Now my desktop is running great!

Moving to Windows 10 is a major adjustment for me, but I am making the adjustment. It is loaded with things I don't need or want but I've learned how to change the program to what I want and need. Change comes whether wanted or not and we have very little choice in the matter.

An Actual Compact Disc with a new Microsoft activation code included. Much better than the newer Windows in my opinion since many of the features are no longer available and requires an internet connection to do an install. Better privacy options using Windows 10 where you can choose what you want to be monitored on your system. A must buy on a new computer build.
