I am using Windows 10 Pro on my laptop since Win 10 free upgrade was "officially" available (not insider preview). I am noticing that I have to search online for many settings like I had to do with Ubuntu OS. This was never case with Win 7 or Win 8. Below are some of issues which I faced/facing-

- Couldn't get right settings to control Windows Update. Windows Update is always ON and starts downloading whenever I start Laptop.
- Few weeks back, Update was stuck and not proceeding for 2-3 days. Then it repaired on its own. But now again from last 2-3 days, new update for Windows 10 is not downloading.
- App update from Windows Store is also not working from last 2-3 days. I tried several options found on this forum like Signing out and signing in again, clear store cache. But no change, and app update still stuck.
- At first I felt EDGE browser was great, but after using for some days, I found it did not managed some forms well, like Firefox and Chrome did. I again switched to Firefox as my main browser.

This and few more issues which mentioned on this forum, which I may have not faced, makes me wonder whether MS has made whole world its Beta testers by providing free Windows 10 upgrade for 1 year. By the time 1 year is over, MS may get to know many issues which we report and fix them, and start selling OS (I am not against MS making money by selling its OS). I just hoped Windows 10 was as simple to use and Windows 7 or 8.

Lol I made this point a few months ago.. The deal is basically that after one year, things will go up for sale, but honestly, I believe that even those people will be beta testers, because there will always be sth to fix and since this is the last "windows" ever, all you can do then is to wait for an update.
