Really? Like what? I am using Windows 8.1 and everything seems fine, except for the fact that Badlion randomly has started to tell me that I have to restart the launcher. Like this is my third time. Its getting kinda annoying because it takes FOREVER with my computer to load u.

You should upgrade to Windows 10 because of:
1) improved efficiency + efficient updates;
2) comprehensive, built-in, and ongoing security protections to help keep you safe;
3) fixed issues.

It doesn't cost anything to upgrade to Windows 10 - https://www.cnet.com/how-to/how-to-download-windows-10-for-free-now-that-windows-7-is-dead/

You should still have your personal files and applications. However, there have been a few cases where files and applications get deleted.

if they drop support of older windows operating systems, they can add stuff that was once not possible because of legacy support
