Windows 10 a worthy upgrade INDEED!

I updated to windows 10 Wednesday from 8.1 and so far so good. No more charms bar on the right hand side & the start menu is reminiscent of windows 7. I think it definitely looks a lot better than 8 and I think its easier to search for folders & files.
No problem logging back into user accounts. It does have to prepare the desktop which takes a time just like opening a new user account. ( I use a SSD so it's less than a minute) . I approve firefox as my default browser and it's business as usual, all the history tabs, cookies etc are still there .
So far I say it's a winner!

i dont know. i had windows 7 or 8 on a laptop a few years ago and it was the worst $250 laptop i ever bought. it had a touch pad which made it impossible for me to navigate without unintentionally clicking every little thing. ended up tossing it out.

so i dont look forward to new versions of anything because i always get the worst one.

bad experience

I have this laptop and it automatically did a win10 update that took ages, and it could not be stopped....then when I tried to log back in, the password for the admin user is not working and I cannot get in to guest acc either!

I tried reboot hitting f8 and win plus 7 key and all other tricks and it wont go in to safemode.....

not end of the world, and prob not worth the $70 it would cost to send to repair shop, as it is a secondhand laptop anyway, I used it as a spare holiday laptop, plus it held a stealth amazon on it and all its cookies....

so thanks win10 - laptop now a doorstop!!!!

You may have checked already but the password should work, is it possible that you have hit the cap lock?
