I have upgraded two computers from Windows 8.1 to Windows 10.  I had no 
sighted assistance in upgrading and have not had any problem in doing 
the upgrades.  Why are so many people afraid of something new?  I have 
noticed one annoyance in Windows 10.  File Explorer seems slow to 
respond.  That is not a deal braker, I'm sure that problem will be fixed 
soon.
