hi,
it does not run constantly. It runs weekly, which is acceptable. Also, not defragging a drive can also shorten it's life.

I’m not so sure that auomatic disk defrag is such a great feature.  Defragging a hard drive too frequently could actually shorten its life, according to some experts.

Gene, great answer here. My computer is about six months old, so I guess I’ll upgrade, but I will wait awhile till FS can support the Edge browser, and I guess the operating system still  has bugs to work out, but it really doesn’t sound like any great shakes of an operating system, maybe a little better than 7, and much better than this 8.1 that I now have and don’t like. Smile. Jim

Do you want to use or to play with Cortana?  I have no interest in playing with or using it.  Some people may write about features Windows 10 has that they like but I haven't heard of any that I care about except the enhanced recovery options Carlos mentioned.  I don't care enough about those to upgrade.  How old is your computer now?  One possible reason to upgrade is that support for Windows 7 will stop in 2020.  If your computer is rather new, that might be a reason to upgrade.  If your computer is three or four years old now, I wouldn't put much weight on that reason.  Your computer will be seven or eight years old in 2020 and who knows if, or how long it will continue to work at that time.

I ask this question sincerely, not to just take up space on the list? And let’s include W8.1 in the question as well. I still haven’t pulled the trigger on ten yet, and am wondering if it is really worth it. I know some of you have done this, and by now can give me a good objective answer. So please don’t write just  because. Smile. Jim
