From 2 years i have been using Macbook Pro as my primary laptop for all purposes. Specially for designing application on XCode for my University project and also had to install Windows. During that time windows 7 was installed and run smoothly until Windows 8 came out and Macbook started heating like ****. Now when i had to upgrade to Windows 10 it runs better in speed but also Heat is so much.

What are your guys views on which Windows is better to be on Macbook Pro and the best use for Windows on my laptop is Visual Studio , Photoshop and other applications that are of Microsoft.


I am just getting reviews of people that which is better and why so i can decide either to re-install Windows 10 or Windows 7 or Windows 8 .
This is my first thread so forgive me if i had break any Community rules and regulations. :)

If you already have Windows 10 installed, stick with that. You're not going to gain anything by reinstalling it except maybe make problems for yourself. And don't worry about the heat, if your MacBook Pro overheats it will shut down.
