Unless you're comparing OSs on exactly the same machine, any assessment of speed is meaningless. At work, your computer is probably tied into a network being shared by many other machines, is likely to be a slower CPU,  probably has a lot less ram and is almost certainly using integrated graphics. No organisation buys gaming computers to use exclusively in an office environment.

People who think Windows 7 is so wonderful have probably forgotten that it also had its fair share of problems associated with updates. The difference is that it's now been around long enough for them to have been resolved.

I've never had problems with 7 and don't know many that have.  Windows 10 is a cluster.  A good look around will tell you that.  I see way more complaints about 10 that with XP or 7 ever had.  And yes, the computers at work are networked, but we have both 7 and 10, and the 7 is much quicker.  Even my mother's new home computer is a dog and her processor specs are great.  It makes no  difference, MS has really dropped the ball with 10.  The design (GUI) is a joke and the update/telemetry nonsense is asinine.  And I have been using MS OS since 3.11, so to me, this is a mess.  To each their own.

I know that it doesn't help you, but since the initial release of Windows 10 I've installed every non-driver update and, apart from one minor webcam problem (easily resolved), it's worked flawlessly for me.

A few people have said this and I don't really understand why. My installation looks almost identical to my old Windows 7 desktop with nothing added to change anything. Maybe it's some small detail you don't like?

For those who have been having issues since the fall Creator's update with unsupported or child level errors, today's windows cumulative update appears to have resolved them. I hadn't been able to run FSX in over 2 months until after I updated my windows 10 an hour ago. I hope it resolves your issues as well. 😀
