My father had upgraded and not too long ago he restarted his computer and lost everything. All links, files, folders and documents were gone. Microsoft glitched or something and wiped a lot of people's hard drives. Thankfully my father had a backup and restore point but that was a few days old. That's terrible  software should be tested thoroughly before release. |

That's exactly why I'm not upgrading just yet, I don't want to lose any of my files that I have saved on my computer. :\ I'm wanting to make a back up of all my stuff on an external hard drive before upgrading, that is if I ever upgrade.

Yeah, I don't really have many files on my computer, I just use it for forums and stuff mainly but I still don't want to upgrade |

Matt, yes they should an extent. I know from personal background working in a technology department and building the images for the school that you just can not test for everything. The difference comes in how you handle when a problem arises. For us we would go right to work to rectify or come up with the next best thing that could work. I haven't heard of any apology or reason from Microsoft. blaze, I hate upgrading especially when people try to force it on you saying oh it's great and wonderful, it can do this, that and so much more. But they are really not sound with the software. I believe they spike up the hype about it just to have people get it so they can do a mass testing thing.

Eventually they will probably phase out support for windows 7 like they did with windows XP ( Which was huge in the early 2000's )
But until they phase out support for Windows 7 I'm not upgrading
