Why do some people still prefer XP over Win7?

Explain it to me, since I barely used XP when it was relevant, went basically straight from 95 to Vista.

Some people just refuse to give something up or they still depend on software that only works on XP.

Why do some people still prefer Win7 over W10?

Explain it to me, since I barely used Win7 when it was relevant, went basically straight from XP to W8.

Could you give me some examples of sotfware that doesn't work on 7 from XP? I find that the compatibility between the 2 is pretty good.

>>55972535
Win10 completely overhauls the interface, breaks compatibilty with a shit ton of software, performns like shit overall, is buggy as fuck, the updates break your system almost 100% of the time and there's more malware by default in it than in cnet.

Not work related, but some of my games I own work much better on XP than they do on 7 or don't work at all on 7. You just can't expect software that was made for windows 98/2000/XP to work with a modern OS like windows 7.

>>55972563
OH, well, yeah, that I can't disagree on, Win95 software in particular does not like Win7 or 10 at all. But I don't know if XP has an easier time running it.

Can you by any chance play SW:Pod Racer in XP?

>>55972538
A terrifying thing is that a lot of point of sale (cash register) software still runs on XP.

Also a lot of army and national security equipment, tho I don't know if banks and business recieve the same special treatment that the goverment gets.
>>
>>55972586
No, I never played that game.
