as without recent security patches you shouldn't use it online
From what I recall you need to modify the install media to include certain drivers that aren't normally present and/or change their order in the load chain. You will lose some features in respect to performance/threading and some reports that even when people have gone to town on it drivers wise and registry hacks, etc. they are still seeing sporadic BSODs, etc. that they don't get with 10.
Can completely understand why anyone would want a 7 install though - I'm currently dual booting 7 and 10 on my gaming PC to run Cyberpunk and it has reinforced yet again what a **** show 10 is in too many areas.
I hope you are using Linux because if security really matters to you Windows 10 doesn't really offer any better protection than 7 :s (it also has significantly more privilege escalation vulnerabilities than 7 if an attacker does get a foot in the door so you definitely need to be on the latest Windows 10 builds).
I used to at least credit them with 10 how quickly vulnerabilities were being patch but then more and more just keep coming out the woodwork that absolutely should not have been there in the first place and more revelations come to light about long standing, actively being exploited, issues that they haven't fully patched, etc.
Isnt Cyberpunk an **** show too with it own problems?!?!!?
Why anybody would want to run 7 now is beyond me, it's unsupported, not worth the security risk for a start, some of us have never had a single issue with 10, thems the facts.

I run 2 systems on win10 and I'll be honest I'm mostly a Linux user for day to day but I'm yet to have an issue with 10 but completely understand that some do so it's fair enough.
Also https://msfn.org/board/topic/170375-oldnewexplorer-119/ to fix your hatred of explorer, I actually agree its a mess in default 10, I'm a customizer though and use third party themes as seen in the screenshot thread so those combined with oldnewexplorer fix that issue for me.
Default 7 is ugly as sin though you must agree lol, completely irrelevant for most though I know, but the lack of security updates now is a sure sign to switch and cope with it.

With an attitude like that I'm surprised anyone wants to help answer your question at all.Rroff appears to be the only poster so far who can think for themselves.
I mean I would not in any way recommend people to continue using 7 over the security situation but people thinking they are actually materially safer on 10 are only kidding themselves - there are just so many security issues coming out of the woodwork on 10 that absolutely should not have been there in the first place and suggest there are a lot more to come it isn't funny - if anyone really cares enough about the security situation to make a deal of the difference between 7 and 10 I really hope they are using one of the better implementations of Linux for anything online.
Albeit they are found and patched but there have been single months with more, critical, security issues dealt with in 10 than the entire history of 7 (in over a decade Windows 7 has 1283 CVE listed security vulnerabilities of all types while 10 has chalked up 1111 in under 5 years).
