Grumble is with AlCaponeSoft's [I]business practices[/I] regarding privacy, tons of hidden network activity, hiding choices, tricking 'normal' users into accepting whatever, troubles for lots of people regarding upgrade, and some more. Using & testing 10 here, very stable and reliable, that part is fine. Privacy mining contained with O&O Shutup10, store-cloud-(cr)apps removed, Classic Shell as menu, and a collection of entries in etc/hosts[URL='https://www.oo-software.com/en/shutup10'].
