For me, the Win 7 to Win 10 transition was a breeze. Two tiny issues:
(1) It did the 3.3GB download without telling me (after promising that it would let me know first) and I was a bit startled when my modem went through a gigabyte in 20 minutes for no apparent reason. (Virus spray at the ready).
(2) My ancient copy of Borland C++ compiler, not supported for at least 10 years, needed reinstalling from the original disc but worked fine.
All of my own written-by-me .NET 4.5 C-sharp code just worked. Nothing to touch.
Incredibly, venerable code written by me using Borland C++ for scope and camera control and using near-real-time multimedia callback stuff that was marked as "deprecated" ten years ago, also just worked.
ImageCraft ICCV8 for AVR cross-compiler just worked. This compiles the hard real time stuff for the micro-controllers that run the mount, scope, dome, focus, generator shutdown, etc.
Email and internet all just worked.
I was pretty seriously impressed.
Best,
Mike
