The editors didn't like
Cortana doesn't always cooperate
Edge still needs work
If there's anything to dislike about Windows 10 it's that Microsoft remains too bullish about the success of Windows 10's Universal apps
It's by no means certain that developers are going to flock to Windows 10 from iOS and Android simply because they ca
There are still some features that should be clear winners for Windows 10 that Microsoft hasn't got quite right
And plenty of new developments that whet your appetite but are still works in progress. The OneDrive app is no replacement for integrating One
Updates effectively mandatory
Still a few kinks to be ironed out
Removes some apps during upgrade
Will developers get on board?
Costly if can't get it free
All change for Windows 8 users
Die
Hard Windows 8.1 users will miss some features
Four
Way Aero snap is still awkward and fiddly
It's unclear what upgrades will cost after the first year
No changes to OneDrive
Some minor bugs (Edge browser tabs timing out
Cortana not always understanding
Odd glitches)
Lack of extensions in Edge browser
Not easy to switch from Bing or default apps

Windows Store still needs more apps
Search is broken
Some features dependent on hardware drivers
Some enterprise features of little immediate practical use

Cortana is fantastic, Better at being both a desktop and a tablet OS, Free for most,
Windows Hello requires new hardware for most, Microsoft Edge has a terrible logo and terrible name. Can we please go back to calling it Spartan?, Swapping between notebook and tablet mode can still feel a little disjointed at times,
