I have none of these problems (see Brian’s post below; all other posts trimmed off). There has been an occasional slowness in redrawing all the screen components in Legacy – but I believe that is related to memory leaks in Internet Explorer 11 when I have an excessive number of browser windows open in it. That is not unique to Windows 10, either.
I have Windows 10 Professional 64-bit installed on this older computer, on an SSD (solid state) drive. It may be that despite its age (assembled in January 2012 – certainly not with the “latest” components as I could not afford them), it has quite good graphics and memory (RAM). I use Legacy v8.0 Deluxe. I can use the mouse to grab it from any corner or side and resize, etc. That happens quickly, no flickers or movements out of my control. I have no complaints. As a software application (leaving aside its purpose and functionality), Legacy is not at all demanding on Windows or hardware.

The full size window is not the problem (just click the gadget in the upper right corner). But try making your Legacy window take up only the left half of your monitor screen. Click the gadget in the upper right of a full size Legacy window (if you hold your mouse over the gadget which looks like 2 sheets of paper it will read out as “Restore Down”). Now, regardless of what size Legacy automatically resized down to, try to change that size by moving the mouse on an edge of the Legacy window until the cursor changes to a double ended arrow and then click and hold down the mouse button dragging that edge to somewhere you want for the resized window. Release the mouse button and you expect the newly resized window to remain there but the chances are that it will spring back to where it was before. It may take 3 or 4 attempts until it sticks. Try that same resizing movement on the windows of other applications and you may notice that they tend to stick when the mouse is released without springing back to its previous position. As I said before, it’s not a critical error…just annoying for those users that want a custom size window from time to time. Brian in CA
