It's been a month and some days that Microsoft officially launched the latest version of Windows which is Windows 10 and I've come to find out that a lot of people are delaying to upgrade not because they don't like the OS but because they're waiting for Microsoft to rectify some known issues.  Today making it a month since I've been using this beast of an OS, I've come with solutions to your fears so you can enjoy this beast with me (especially if you're still on that awful windows 8 ) 1.  AUTOMATIC WINDOWS UPDATE This, obviously tops the list of "Reasons why you should not upgrade to Windows 10 yet" found on many websites.
