Windows 10 of course is free but the price you have to put up with are those pesky suggestions (other wise known as adverts) for other Windows apps appearing in the start menu.

Currently there are 5.. The Anniversary Update will increase this to 10. This is of course isat the expense of your preferred installed apps.

If you are annoyed at this you can switch off the feature quite easily.
