1. Windows 10 is a unique and functional operating system
My overall experience is outstanding because Windows 10 was good enough for me and for my requirements. I got almost everything in this operating system that basically I need as a freelaner. So simple, good-looking, and a lot of helpful OS that made my computer using experience so enjoyable.
PROS
Windows 10 OS is very easy to use and so comfortable. Have used other OS but windows 10 is completely different and unique. It has pretty amazing features and functionality that helps me a lot. I really like its graphics and design even its dashboard and settings options. This OS also has some extra things that are awesome such as power saving, link up the android phones, personalization, gaming optimization etc.
CONS
I’m using windows 10 since 2017, during this time I’ve noticed a few weird things about Windows 10. 1. It takes a lot of updates which is really annoying. I have updated my windows 10 several times but I don’t know why it starts again after few days. I turn off it but nothing happens, this OS should have a strong update off option. 2. Windows 10 is a bit heavy as a result normal PC can’t control it smoothly. Windows 7 is enough for all kinds of PC but windows 10 is not. 3. I’m having time zone related problems on windows 10. Every time when I shut down my PC, all ok. But when I again turn on my PC, I can see my shut downtime is showing. For example, I’ve turned off my PC at 10 AM. Then I turn on my PC at 2 PM, but it not will show at 2 PM, it will show at 10 AM!

I switched to CentOS Linux because I always try something different and I love to test different kinds of things.

Overall experience is not so good. Apart from security features, I am really struggling with performing daily routine tasks.
