I'm with Sailor Steve. 8.1 since XP and I really like it. It is different tho, but easy to use. BTW... I don't use a touch screen. Do a Google Search and get StartButton8_Setup... it's freeware. Gives you the Start menu we had in XP.
Or copy it from my Public DropBox account.....

As for Windows 10, there is no more Internet Explorer and some other big changes. So for me I'll stick with 8.1 until I'm forced to switch to a new Windows version.
