    Not surprised at all. I have tried Win 10 two or three times and every time within a week or two switched back to Windows 7. There are just too many annoyances and incompatibilities, which are non-existent in Windows 7.

    Just one silly example, In Windows 10 put a DVD disk in your DVD drive. A small notification pops up somewhere down on the right hand side. If you don’t hit that thing within 2 seconds it disappears and you have to use an elaborate process to open or view the contents of the DVD disk. In Windows 7, a file manager window opens and stays open, no matter what you’re busy with. So you can return to that open window and carry on working with your DVD disk without interruption.

    I’ve tried all the various autoplay settings in Windows 10 to change the behavior of that brief pop-up window in Windows 10, without success. As Jim Carrey would say: Take care now, Bye Bye then!
