It's true that some of the older Windows versions should have undergone more testing, esp security-wise, before release.
However, all the major OS-es for the past several years work well right out of the box. All require periodic updates as well.
Some software companies do the updates behind your back (ex. Google). Other ask your specific consent (ex. Adobe)
Either way has pros and cons.
