My big problem is the update system constantly driving me nuts by blocking all other network usage during the update download (effectively freezing other network usage on my two other machines) and every time it updates software that I do not want it to update. Even if you shut off the updates to dead stop in the tool service menu when you reboot it turns them back on again. The other problem is the permissions which drive me more nuts needing a cyber engineering doctorate to translate the gobble de gook nerd language which must be decoded before you can go through about five hoops to change them. You must decode the words "Inherit" and "Object" and another one I forgot. The one thing that I do like is the warning it gives you when you are installing older software---"if you install this software maybe things won't work too well". It showed me that on just about everything I installed. Mine by the way installed clean on a formatted hard drive. It doesn't like my Microsoft laser mouse either keeping it permantly in the two click mode, can't change it either. Windows 7 Pro was flawless compared to Windows 10 except for the permissions crapola.

all well and good as long as you have both the time and inclination to (perhaps first deactivate) reinstall all your software. much simpler keep a good image and when you have problems simply reload it.

i'm very happy with http://www.macrium.com/product/7/macrium-reflect-v6-home-edition.aspx 

i usually have two backups, the first a KNOWN clean working version, the second after any major installs and / or updates. once this 2nd has proved reliable i'll then delete the first image - etc., etc.,
