I have a digital recording studio in my house. You would be amazed at
how much hardware, as well as software, from the trivial to the major,
is not supported by Win10. What is the hurry? Let Win10 ripen for as
long as possible until you actually need it. Then again, thank you to
the impatient early adopters for jumping in early and finding the
problems (the hard and painful way) that will be fixed a year or two
from now. Some present hardware will never be supported. How many
flatbed scanners went to the recycler when Win7 didn't support them,
although they worked perfectly in XP?

about programs that were loaded on your computer? Quicken, video
editing, navigation programs, etc?

Generally, no (no need to do an upgrade).
Be careful, though, with anything requiring special drivers (GPS
receivers (they are all “special”), any extraordinary WLAN adapters
(e.g. some of the special “extended range” ones), any older (and
obsoleted) h/w (e.g. some older printers, scanners etc.), many security
devices (e.g. finger print readers).

Joel,
I'd be interested in how other programs run with it or whether you have
to do upgrades on those as well.

I installed Windows 10 onto my Lenovo laptop with Win 7, Install was
flawless. Made sure that OpenCPN runs as well as Office apps. The
new browser will import bookmarks from another browser in seconds.
I did not have a chance to play with it much, but first look is very
positive.
