In Win 8.1, I got okay performance, and could let Windows manage memory completely with the same apps. In July I seemed to have a lot of lags in 7/8.1 upgraded to 10, and quirks: IE11 would run in this device but not that one or vice versa after further OS updates, Comodo could scan this element in one but get stuck on same in another, etc. I had to run even moderately taxing media apps only in BOXX or heavier Linux distros this summer.

But I must admit I’m impressed with read speeds om my 7/8.1 upgrades to 10 since this Fall Upgrade; of course I removed all now-surplus file clutter and defrag, however…I always do that, and yet after the Fall Upgrade all devices are back to the speeds (and freedom from bsod) they had before; in fact, my former Windows 7 have better speeds than they had in their own heyday!

Lastly, even IE11 works like a charm in all upgraded devices; the only foible still around is Comodo’s own peculiarity of being unable to get past scanning a Java plugin helper (just in the upgraded 7’s, full-scan only; must be an issue to be resolved in next year’s CIS re Win 10 on pre-2012 servers).

I know some have abstract philosophical issues with Windows 10, but as for the reality of user performance again your story appears very accurate to me. Cheers!
