my only advice is: Use a stable OS for the host *and* use the host itself as little as possible. My host is plain vanilla debian 8 (stable); if I am forced to run Win-X I have it in a VM. My main working VMs are primary Linux Mint 18.1 and secondary Win-7. I for one would *by no means* use Win-X for anything mission critical. Aside from tampering your privacy, Win-X is a mess: unstable, unpredictable, uncontrollable. MS does what it wants to your installation, including adding or removing (!) your software and drivers.
