I am an Apple user and barely use my Mac for actual Mac tasks, but I think the main reason that people didn't update to windows 10 is because the interface was so different. They like the older interface of Windows 7 and 8/8.1.

I can’t believe you were holding up a Surface Pro. I have an original Surface Pro. It’s a Windows 8. I had gotten cancer and was sick for awhile. So my Surface has been just sitting in a closet. It wasn’t running properly. So I thought I would set it back to factory settings. BIG MISTAKE! now it won’t give me options to connect to Wi-Fi or even a hot spot. And I don’t have dial up. And there’s not a slot for Ethernet on the Surface. I’m trying to figure out how to get this upgraded to 8.1 (which is also not a thing anymore) so that I can then go to Windows 10. I’m trying to not spend a lot of money to do this because I don’t know if it will work. Can I just install Windows 10 with a usb? Do I have to install windows 8.1 before I can install Windows 10? This was $1000 plus tax when I bought it. But I got sick and so I used my phone more. Because I just wasn’t sitting up very much. Help!
