Now W10 appears to be the good version after the less than popular W8. Still, why provoke the gods of I.T. by upgrading for some dumb doodads when things like the issue you describe are likely to occur? An OS is an OS, after all, and if your programs are running fine on the old OS, isn't that the whole point?

I tell you, they are going to have to pry my W7 out of my cold, dead laptop. Or something.

My problem? My luck? My laptop will last until Windows 11, the bad version coming up, has been released and is mandated on all new equipment.
