Some applications won't close properly on Windows 10.
Since switching to Windows 10, I've observed a slight change in behavior. Certain applications—games, utilities, etc.—tend to pause and wait before closing, while others stubbornly remain active. This became apparent with Just Cause 2: Multiplayer Mod, which lingers and closes only about a minute after activation. Skype for Desktop, a genuine Microsoft product, also refuses to close properly. Unlike in Windows 7, where you can simply click "X," Skype now requires using the "Quit" option directly from Task Manager. This issue appears to be a pre-release fix, as it was included for free. Anyone else experienced similar problems?
I upgraded straight from Windows 7, which still leaves the issue open. We shouldn't dismiss it entirely because of the direct upgrade, but the possibility that it's not a full Windows 10 update is what prompted this post. If it weren't for that concern, I'd have waited until I replaced my SSD and performed a clean install.
win10 comes with a massive number of bugs and glitches. It's completely normal for a brand-new operating system to be quite unstable right out of the gate. Don't commit to it because of all the issues—wait until it improves significantly, maybe after a year or two. At the very least, I hope it gets much better. If not, it could take even longer, possibly two years, before it stabilizes. Personally, I believe Microsoft introduced the free upgrade in the first year to gather more feedback from users. This helps them identify problems and make improvements over time.
If I encounter any severe bugs that prevent me from completing my task, I’ll immediately revert to Windows 7. So far, only small details have been noticed. Are you asking about how it seemed like you were always using a tablet? Just a joke. In reality, all operating systems behave similarly at the beginning, and a free one wouldn’t be expected.
Windows 10 installs smoothly for most users after a clean setup. I haven’t faced issues on systems with 25+ processors, except when using NVIDIA or AMD drivers.
