I moved to windows 10, My computer is 4 years old , a quadcore with 8 gigs of memory. windows 10 has slowed my system down quite a bit.
I did NOT lose pix etc. everything worked as before except its slow. Also note if you
burn to a dvd, win10 no longer supports burning dvd's. I had to find a 3rd party vendor for that.
I'm sorry I downgraded to win 10....

You didn't say what you moved from. If it was Windows 7 and you're now running slower, then there is very likely a configuration problem with the system or the application you're running, since it's pretty universally agreed that Win 10 is as fast or (more typically) faster than 7 or 8. What ap do you find runs more slowly?
Regarding burning DVDs, have you tried using the Windows Media player (burn tab). Here's some links showing how:

Some older machines do occasionally have problems with upgrades to newer operating systems. Updating any operating system on any platform is a serious undertaking. You had 30 days after installing Windows 10 to go back to Windows 7 or Windows 8. Why didn't you take advantage of that?

I am considering a new computer but have avoided Windows 10 up to now. Does anyone know if the problems have been resolved for photographers?
Win 10 - Dell XPS 8900 i7 (3.4 GHz), - Photoshop - ACDsee - Photomatrix - PortraitPro - Multitask all you want - No problems. Both at home and at work. Don't buy cheap.
