Indeed!

Just stay with 7 then. It is more stable than 10 and you
won't have many issues with software compatibility. And
it is a ton easier to run and administer. Plus, the update
process is not as severe as 10. 7 is also more
tolerant of under powered cheap assed hardware.

10 have build in drivers support (USB3, NVMe, etc.) and
finds printers on your network/local very easily. It
also will mount an iso for you in Windows Explorer
(Not Internet Explorer).

Software support will end for 7 next year, which may be
a blessing in disguise. XP still works fine and it
has not been supported for years. And XP gets
broken into less than does 7, so if history hold true,
you can ignore the FUD (Fear, Uncertainty, Doubt)
and just keep your antivirus updated (Kaspersky and ESET
are good AV's).

You can also consider Mac OS and Linux. Both are
technically superior to Windows, but have only about 1/20
of the software support. And you have to "learn something
new". Linux has "Live USB" iso's you can download and try
before you buy. Make sure the software you need supported
runs before switching. And be forewarned: Mac OS is "weird
for the sake of weirdness".
