I upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10 last Thursday. I did it while my daughter was visiting. She has had Windows 10 for some time now and I figured she could help me plow through it. I was totally amazed. It did take a long time to do the upgrade, but when it was finished everything worked perfectly. I was worried about my printer, my Silhouette software and my 6D embroidery software. They all work great. I didn't have to download any new drivers or anything. I can't say for sure, but I think a new driver for my printer was part of the upgrade. I say that because my printer has a new name now. Anyway, I was very pleasantly surprised at how easy it was to update, and how wonderful it works. My computer is a laptop and is about 4 years old.
