I have been using Windows 10 home for nearly a year now on my dedicated Astro Laptop which never gets connected to the internet ( I only connect on line to download new software which is rare ) files are transferred / copied only by USB stick
I run EQMOD with StellariumScope and Stellarium for telescope control of both my HEQ5 and EQ6-R mounts (Goto and tracking )
I run BYEOS for frame, focus and capture
And finally PHD2 for guiding
The best way to connect your mount for EQMOD ( Synta mounts only ) and PHD2 is via a USB2 EQdirect cable - USB2EQ5 ( recommended by EQMOD and PHD2 )
The Shoestring Astronomy site has a list of drivers for the FTDI chip which need to be downloaded for the EQ direct cable for use with Windows 10
My set up operating on Windows 10 has been working flawlessly for nearly a year
Cheers
