'Windows 10 destroyed our data!' Microsoft hauled into US court

Interestingly

Ever since the Windows 10 "upgrade" was disabled, 7 updates are a lot slower especially on x64.

I upgraded to W7 x64 from x32 on this machine specifically to boost performance before going to 10.

Had to resort to third party tools just to get machines fully patched, which is fine but very time consuming and does not actually solve the problem.

Does anyone know exactly why the 4GB limit appears, also is there a known problem with CPU usage?

Since upgrading this quad core AMD machine has run hotter than Hell, fan maxes out about 50% of the time when using Firefox.

Again the usage seems clustered around a few processes, notably WSE is known to be a data and CPU hog when doing anything.
