Sometimes it's best to adapt instead of whining about what has changed. I will continue to state that I do not like the Windows 10 operating system. I'm still running with Windows 7 and Linux Mint version 18 and I will do everything in my power to not load Windows 10 onto my desktop computers. 😁 zil and Midwest LDS 2 Quote

But IMO, Windows 10 is a great OS. Unless your desktop is more than five years old, I think you'll find it as good as or better than Windows 7, which was itself a really good OS, for its time the best MS had put out to that point.

If you do not mind Microsoft harvesting most of the information on your computer (selling the information to third parties) and forcing software updates into your operating system then Windows 10 is not bad. I use it at work but I do not like it. Quote

Here's the only link I can find at the moment with details on what and how to disable all the junk: https://slate.com/technology/2015/08/windows-10-privacy-problems-heres-how-bad-they-are-and-how-to-plug-them.html Quote

You shut it off but the Windows 10 operating system is still giving out a lot of data from my research and when Windows 10 forces software updates many times it will just change the settings in your operating system again to what Microsoft wants. Use Spybot Anti-Beacon if you really want to shut off most of the data mining. zil 1 Quote

If they weren't baptized in California or Kansas, what makes you think they'll be baptized in Utah? It's not like they are coming from places that have never heard of the Gospel.
