Yep pile of shit. grinds my computer to near on a halt with a few automatic tasks running in the background. Memory and CPU are always at 50/60 % with just basic stuff it wants to do.

What the fuck were you running before, Windows 95?

There should be absolutely minimal performance difference between 7, 8(.1) and 10.

Sounds like a crap update/driver issue/something, windows 10 itself is great when it runs OK.

Yeah not helping, but I've never met anyone who likes Windows 8 more than windows 10

New pc came with 8, that was horrible so upgraded, wished I hadn't. Got 7 on my laptop with 4gb less ram and it runs great. 7 is what it will stay on until it dies.

Make one backup with system restore then turn system restore off, make sure the anti virus isn't hogging too much memory and CPU.

Run Malwarebyes and Superantispyware, both free.

Make sure all drivers are up to date and that you have the correct graphics driver which will cause this problem with the standard VGA driver rather than the correct one.

Windows 10 beats 8 on usability hands down if its set up right and is much faster than 7 or 8 in almost every situation.

Just do this and make it into a nice, normal desktop operating system:
