Windows 10

Most people don't really use the operating system just the applications so it makes little difference to them anyway. They just want to know where to start the programs they use.
 
You cannot use your programs without an OS...and if that OS does not support the programs you need to use, then the OS is useless....just as your computer is useless.
So the OS does matter.
Most people will choose an OS that they are comfortable with. You like 10...you feel happy with it...it does all the things you want and it starts up quickly.
Life is short...too short to be wrestling with the faff of a new OS.

Both should be ok with anything that you would normally come across.

My Microsoft Office has run out they wanted more money - about 10 years ago when you bought Office it last for years before it ran out or stopped working, they weren't as strict! These days if you don't log on the internet for over a month you start getting reminders saying "you need to log on to internet your subscription is running out!" you have to go on line for the software to log on at headquarters via the internet in order to carry on using it! They could also be searching your computer to see what files you got or at least have a list of what documents your opening in word!? They want you to be on the Internet all the time.

So now I'm using Libra it works with word documents so that's a plus!:thumbsup: and it's free!

Usually appears if, you don't have windows office and click on a document etc that is in windows format, it comes up telling you you haven't got windows office and asks if you'd like to purchase it. (Actually it almost insists that you do).
If you get rid of the app it allows your default to open it (in my case, open office).
