Advantage of having Windows 10 over Windows 7?

Original Title:

Why upgrade?

What is the advantage of having Windows 10 over Windows 7? What specifically to I get?

 

What actual advantages does Windows 10 provide to the user over 8.1?

Thanks, but this is just a bland sales pitch which doesn't really tell me an awful lot.

I actually found that my machine booted more slowly with Windows 10, a lot more slowly in fact. I tried Edge and could not find any advantages over IE. What do you mean by "Your personal files and apps you’ve installed will all be waiting for you"? I have
them now.

My question was "what advantages does Windows 10 offer to me?" i.e. "Why should I upgrade?," not "how easy is it to upgrade". You seem to be confirming that there are no advantages to moving to Windows 10, or am I missing something?

Remember I am talking about advantages to me; something new or better that would help me which I was unable to find in Windows 10.

David, you initially asked (being the title of your post):

"What actual advantages does Windows 10 provide to the user over 8.1?"

To add to Ravi's response, the apps in Windows 10 will work on any other Windows device. While the App store doesn't have as many apps as Apple or Samsung, Microsoft is solving that problem by a) allowing apps to be created once for all devices and b) creating
better feel and integration of apps and the app store in Windows 10. I think you'll see more well known apps migrate to Windows soon. Also, the Windows 10 start menu is everything it should have been in 7, 8 and even 8.1. There are also some UI upgrades that
improve the look and feel over previous versions of Windows, but of course this is subjective and nothing I've seen seems to be "significant". Lastly, for the time being it's free. You get the aforementioned features without having to pay anything out of pocket.
If you perceive even the slightest bit of value from any of these things then you have a case for upgrading to Windows 10 while it remains free.

In your response to Ravi you said, "My question was "what advantages does Windows 10 offer to me?" i.e. "Why should I upgrade?,"..."

All anyone can offer is vague notions of what they think may be a benefit to you unless you are specific. Perhaps if you describe what matters to you then someone else can weigh in on whether that's been improved or not. There may be no reason you should
care about upgrading. Change without benefit is, well, unbeneficial.
