📎 AI Summary:
The thread centers on whether to keep Windows 10 or revert to Windows 7, with the main concern being Windows 10 privacy settings resetting to defaults after updates despite users being able to adjust them manually. The asker notes Windows 10’s long-term support/lifecycle as a key advantage and asks for input on how to weigh privacy intrusions versus staying current. Overall sentiment is pragmatic and cautious—focused on addressing privacy behavior (particularly post-update changes) rather than outright rejecting Windows 10.

hey al,

would like some input on windows 10.
i did the windows 10 preview and it was ok.
i went ahead and installed windows 10.
my question is should i keep it or should i stay with windows 7.
one thing that i really don't like about windows 10 is all of the privacy intrusion and i understand that is something that has been around with google and all of the cell phones and probably even with windows 7. that is my only complaint. i know that i can adjust the privacy settings however i have also notice that after certain updates that they are switched back to the default settings. a plus for windows 10 is that it is going to be around for at least tens years and so that is a plus.

all input would be appreciated.
thanks.
