Thanks Snoopz. If there is anything else you or anyone else thinks I ought to be aware of I would be most grateful for the advise.

Cortana still not available to you?
Here's the hoops you have to go through to get it.

I think it looks poor, i've had some bugs where the task bar won't auto hide from time to time, i just don't like the feel of it, seems clunky and awkward imo

Is the taskbar issue sporadic or is it happening during certain tasks, movements etc. ?
You're going to have to expand on clunky and awkward. It could mean bad system specs or running order and inability to accept change

The taskbar issue is is sporadic, some times it just sits there and doesn't move, so I reboot and all is well, also since upgrading ( if you can call it that) to W10 I am now having terrible trouble with Flash Shockwave crashing, this never happened before W10 was installed.

It would have been quite an achievement by M$ to make it worse.

Having put mine in autohide and done a little searhing something your end has got to be triggering the taskbar issue. Is OneDrive running in the taskbar, notification area? If so exit the program, close it down. It could also be display driver related. Any compatibility issues should already be fixed to be honest. Be sue you have the latest drivers installed, or some cases not
Adobe Shockwave Player crashing doing what exactly? Programs? Tasks?

Re: [Update] Windows 10 Discussion
Win 8 was fine here, and 10 feels like win 8 with a start menu, so all good.

I'd say Win 10 and even Win 8 looks far better than WinME.
