Is Windows 10 really an "Upgrade"?

[Leslied]

I have a Toshiba C75D-B7215 and since I upgraded to Windows 10, from 8.1, it is sooo sllloooww, especially when browsing (Google)!!! I have downloaded all the recent drivers and contacted Toshiba (THAT was a joke). I am seriously considering going back to 8.1 if I can't fix this issue, but I really like the features in 10.

Ok...I uninstalled my anti-virus and the problem is fixed! I had Superantispyware installed, in conjunction with Windows Defender...they were apparently fighting one another.

Thanks!

Turn off 'connected user experience and telemetry' as well. The best way I've found to do so is just to install Spybot Anti-Beacon.
