Meanwhile I checked with my friend this afternoon. I had some of the facts wrong. She was running Windows 7 and decided to try 10. The features of 10 that she didn't like were mostly if not all browser related, from what I could understand. She was unable to downgrade back to 7 and paid a local computer shop to wipe everything clean and go back to 7. She was unsure whether the cost included a new copy Windows 7 or not.
Those kinds of stories make me cringe. Possibly her issues could have been solved in a matter of seconds by changing a few settings? I mean there is certainly a case to be made for sticking to Win7, but just paying a shop all that money for a crude solution...
