Many older PC's are not up to running Windows 10. As your Toshiba is 5 years old, I imagine that could be your problem.

Go to Toshiba's web site to see if your particular system is up to running the OS:

If not, others on this board may be able to help you revert to Windows 7.

I abandoned Microsoft 3 years ago and now use an Apple MacBook, so it would be difficult for me to walk you through reverting to your old OS,

Windows 10 bugs, My 5 year old Toshiba laptop decided to download W 10 on its own last week. I was perfectly happy with the W 7 on it and against my better judgement went ahead and accepted the upgrade after the 2 hr loading process. Some minor things such as deleting a couple minor programs, C cleaner was one. My biggest problem is turning off after 3 minutes or so (sometimes a little longer) and Firefox is crashing much more often. For the turning off, I messed with the energy usage, tried resetting to default and also messed with the screen saver setting which is on none now. No fix yet.
Any suggestions? TIA for any help.
