W10 is certainly not perfect, but it takes a lot less effort. It has become more a matter of turning things off or tearing them out. Then just rake everything back together.
I also use Notepadd++, VLC, Potplayer, WinRAR etc. But those things have become a lot less essential than they were 20 years ago.
edit:
well a media player is still a necessity IMO, Groove is really a crap program, WMP was a lot better
A number of points can be solved with a Microsoft account. 1.5 years ago it surprised me a bit how many settings are synced these days. Delicious. I suspect that +/- half of your personal Windows settings are included in Settings.
I’ve been installing Windows on systems since 3.11 and Windows 10 is by far the least hassle. It also helps that with Windows 10 you have your desktop in front of you within an hour. W7 had been working on that for 3-4 times as long and 95/98/XP was already a day job just to install.
My w10 list is +/- half of yours, my W7 list was more than 3 times as big as yours. On average I have been able to reinstall Windows 7 every year. I have only reinstalled W10 on my own system once. Add that in and the effort for W10 is negligible compared to W7 and older
