Switch to Ubuntu?  That might sound silly but actually it is not
difficult to set the PC up to dual boot Win or Ubuntu (or you can run
Ubuntu in a virtual machine under windows).  After a short learning
curve you will realise how fantastic it is to be back in charge of
your machine again.  There are very few apps that do not have an
equivalent in Ubuntu.  I set mine up to dual boot but very soon found
I virtually stopped using Win.
