I use XP, 7, 8.1, and 10 on a daily basis. I keep the 10 updated,
although I couldn't really tell you why. The others don't get, and I'd
say don't need, updates. They work fine, as is.

This whole feeling of unease when an OS stops receiving constant updates
seems to be manufactured by the maker of the OS. Everything is sunshine
and roses when it's new, but in short order it's so rotten that it needs
to be 'updated'.
