Quote: "There seems to be some windows 10 hate on the internet, however I did my research and tweaked basic settings and have had no problems with windows 10, with the exception of some programs no longer working, which were already iffy in windows 7."
Totaly agree.
Most of the hate for Windows 10 stems from the initial roll out, a lot of users upgraded during the free upgrade period, and had a lot of issues because the upgrade was leaving legacy files and conflicting drivers.
Even right at the beginning if you upgraded, then did a full wipe and install of Windows 10 it worked pretty well, but if you just upgraded it was a nightmare. So many bad vibes came from those issues that people reverted back or didn't bother upgrading, and of course spread the word that Windows 10 was a pariah, that hate stuck and grew, even though in reality Windows 10 is actually pretty good if you install it properly.
Granted it has had its issues with updates, and there were "features" forced on us that people didn't like (windows update not allowing you to stop it happening originally etc.) but it was still a good operating system, and is even better now it has gotten over its teething problems, and with a few tweaks as Wizard says it's much better.
