if you look it up, almost none of them does affect a normal/clean win7 build, only in combination with other software like java or microsoft silverlight or many of the "windows features" stuff (which one atleast can deactivate) it can get ugly. and you still can't magically find and exploit it just because the pc has a internet connection. You need someone to download your malware, or get it via a hidden java-driveby-download. but even than, the same can happen to you with win10 and it will get more likely the more ppl use win10.

in all this years, i never needed even one security related microsoft patch. i used malwarebytes antivirus, but its mostly useless because iam not clicking on spam, not visiting same grey or darkwebsites and also i use noscript in my browser for the trustworthy sites i visite (which could get hacked and used to spread viruses).
everytime i search my pc, it doesnt find anything - but even than software could just be made FUD (fully undetectable) with one of many ways to obfuscate a remote administration tool / a keylogger / ransomware or any malware you can think of. no one is safe, you're not safe cause of patches because the patches always arrive late - when the exploit already happened and the loss (of data or what ever) unrecoverable occured.

i really dont unterstand why you made a 8year old game to require dx12 functions

nope, i am not puting myself and my pc at a risk (not more than anyone does anyway). or do you wanna say that win10 has no malware dedicated to it, no zeroday exploits in circulation and is unhackable?

its not safer than win7. to get infected and exploited on a win7, you need to download something from the web and you surely know its the same behaviour on win10.
how can you state something like that, knowing that there is malware being coded for win10 on a hourly basis? (and it will get more malware, the more people use win10)

HannesC no please dont force win10 on us. is there any fix or any way around that, so we win7 players can play too?
