I did not encounter the two-step install. I installed 64-bit Windows 10 from a DVD onto bare metal. Then I installed TSM Client V7.1.3 which was only a one-step process. It appears to work, but I'm nervous about using it in production until I hear from IBM. I assume it will have the same restrictions as noted for Windows 8.1.
