All of this is moot. Windows 10 is no longer, and being replaced by … Windows. No more version indicator (10, 8.1, 8, 7 et al).

Once on Win10 (yeah, how many are really going to do that), all change will be forced upon you. Your choices are soon to be limited to EXACTLY what Microsoft makes FOR YOU.

Long term, I suspect what it will cost users is a choice that Microsoft will make for you as well. Then, like now, you will either pay or get off their bandwagon.

Now it makes sense that ms will upgrade previous versions, i.e. 7, 8, and 8.1 for “free.” In my part of the world, nothing is free.

I’d liked to think that one of their major focus’s is security. I didn’t see any mention of that.

Well, FWIW, I’ve had my share of nightmares with TB with it hanging, i.e., running in background, but never displaying its window, or crashing sometimes, etc, etc. I did the complete re-install, etc–nothing seem to work until I stumbled upon a firewall issue. On one machine, I use Online Armour (w/Win 7), which has a couple options: “keyloggers” and “program guard”. Disabling these before starting up TB did the trick (I not sure which one works as I don’t really care–I was exhausted by this time with trying stuff). I spent days trying to find an answer until I discovered this. It’s really a mystery what TB does during its startup……..
