I have one MS tower PC on which I was originally running W7. During the free upgrade period I decided to try W10 on it since I already had a laptop that came with W10 and worked fine. However, being aware of the potential issues with simply upgrading the original OS I installed a second, blank, hard drive in the W7 machine and put W10 on that. Now, when I boot that computer, it asks me which OS I want to use. With a clean install like that I have found W10 to be excellent once past the (relatively simple) learning curve, so I hardly ever boot into W7 nowadays.

I suspect that many of the problems that new W10 users have encountered have a lot to do with upgrading an existing OS to W10 rather than doing a clan install. You never know what fragments and bits are lying around in the registry to upset the new OS!
