Windows 10 advantages:

1- New Start Menu 

 The new Start Menu is smarter than the one in Windows 8 and 8.1. It recognizes if you are using a desktop computer or a tablet and presents you with a Start Menu that is adapted for the environment which you are using. It is even smart enough to work with convertible tablet that docks with a keyboard, intelligently shifting between tablet mode and desktop mode on-the-fly.

2- Cortona 

Cortona is Microsoft’s new virtual assistant. If you need to know something, just ask. She will be able to initiate calls, schedule reminders, set alarms, check calendars, and do many other things, all with the power of voice. She can even be asked to search for items on your computer.

3- Notifications 

 Notifications have been enhanced, compared to Windows 8. There is now an Action Center you can pull out from the side to see past notifications that you might not have caught when they first appeared.

4- Unified Control Panel

The new panel that presents all of your settings is now the same whether you are using a desktop computer or tablet. There is no separate view for each mode. This should make things easier to find, no matter what device you are using.

5- Intelligent Home Folder

 Now when you launch a new Explorer Window you will be greeted by a row of familiar folders you tend to use often, plus a lineup of recently created and opened files, making it easier to find the things you use often. That file that you just saved, but now you can not find, just open a new Explorer Window and it should appear.

6-Boot to Desktop

Windows 10 now boots straight to a desktop mode. No more Start Page.
Virtual Desktops - This feature has appeared in other operating systems for a long time, and it is now a welcome feature in Windows 10. If you have always wanted the features of multiple monitors without the cost, this is one way to achieve it. You will be able to quickly switch between virtual desktops and move applications from one desktop to another.

7-Metro Desktop Apps

 Metro apps can now be ran in resizeable windows that can be moved around the desktop, just like any other window. No more having to snap a Metro app beside a the desktop just to use it.

8- Universal Apps 

 Apps from the new Windows Store will run on anything from a Windows Phone to Windows Server Edition. Settings, notifications, credentials, and even saved games, among many other things, will all synchronize between apps on different devices.

9- Edge Browser 

 The new browser, codenamed “Spartan,” is set to replace Internet Explorer. The Edge browser will have deep integration with Cortona. She will show you the weather from the URL bar and maps, menu information, and contact details when you search for restaurants.

10- Bonus: Free 

 We almost forgot to mention, the upgrade is free. During the first year of its release it will be free for anyone with a consumer license to upgrade from Windows 7 and Windows 8.1. (Enterprise versions of Windows 7 and 8.1 will not be able to received free upgrades. This will not affect most people.)


Windows 10 disadvantages:

1. Default settings app

Windows 10 is to remove default settings appication from control panel to PC settings app.For example if we press the network icon on the taskbar it takes directly to PC settings(similar to windows app). Few may not like it.
Control panel is not really dead, but to sync the theme with windows 10 theme there are hiding control panel!

2) windows media center

Microsoft declares windows media center is (dead) not going to be in windows 10.

3) Hamburger Menu

The one who don't like hamburger menu are not go no like windows 10 store apps(all most all apps have hamburger menu)

4) For the one who love to use small icons and fonts also may take time to like windows 10.

5) For now Microsoft is reporting that the windows 10 update license will be only for an year.
