See my post above. Windows thought my father's touchscreen laptop was a tablet, and put him in tablet-only mode by default.

And? I said the Windows 10 installer makes efforts to avoid breaking working systems and does a decent job at it, Windows 10's confusing tablet-mode switching is a different issue entirely (my wife turned it on by accident on her Surface Pro just the other day and couldn't figure out what she did).
