Windows 10 Destroyed Hard Drives And Deleted Data, Claims Lawsuit

More than 100 PC users in Illinois are suing Microsoft for over $5 million. They say they were pushed or forced into upgrading to Windows 10 by the company's aggressive marketing, and claim that upgrading damaged their computers.

Windows 10 was offered as a free update for a year after its release in July 2015. The class-action lawsuit claims many users had their hard drives damaged after agreeing to install the upgrade.

Now it gets interesting, although I would not say they "agreed" with the upgrade so much as they were coerced into the upgrade.
