Microsoft Receives B+ Grade For The Performance Of Windows 10

Microsoft has received many reactions and comments from users all over the world after rolling out its latest operating system last July 29. The tech company has been praised by many users with devices running on Windows 10 while others expressed their disappointment.

Analysts said that Microsoft did a god job during the first two weeks of their release of Windows 10. General feedbacks for the new OS is positive despite the occurrence of a few issues.

Steve Kleynhans of Gartner, the world's leading IT research company graded the Microsoft base on its performance with Windows 10.

"If I had to give Microsoft a letter grade, it would be a B or a B+. It's not an A because it hasn't gone perfectly. They've stubbed their toe over privacy issues, for example," Kleynhans stated.

Wes Miller of Directions on Microsoft also stated that many are pleased with the new operating system. He states, "Windows 10's go-to-market was really quite good."

While others felt satisfied with what Windows 10 has to offer, some are saying nothing but criticisms for Microsoft. Whenever there are issues, social media amplifies the problem. Earlier, users complained about the privacy issues in the system. A default setting compromises their privacy and personal information.

Many were also furious of Windows 10 for automatically setting Edge as the default browser. Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox are being left behind. CEO of Mozilla Corporation Chris Beard scolded Microsoft for doing the act.

The latest issue faced by the Redmond based company was the reboot loop issues of its patch called KB3081424. Users were dismayed because their devices restarted over and over again.

Windows 10 gained 14 million installs during the first 24 hours of its launching. Recent reports reveal that the company already gained 45 million installs as of August 8.

Analysts largely applauded the launch. Kleynhans stated that, "As far as the roll-out, it's not any worse than any other Windows. But it's all happening at this compressed timetable."
