I would like to upgrade my Windows 7 to Windows 10. I have so many files and games installed on windows 7. I am afraid of compatibility issue and might lose the save file.

Does any of here a Windows 7 Ultimate users and upgrade their OS to Windows 10? What happen does it affect any program and lost game save file? I want to know cause there's no turning back after I update my OS.

I ran the in-place upgrade on 7 of my 9 systems. 6 worked flawlessly initially. The issue on the last one was caused by an unrelated hardware problem. The upgrade was attempted again after that problem was fixed and the second attempt went perfectly as well.

I've upgraded two of my machines so far. Zero issues.

And yes, you can go back to your earlier OS. 30 day time limit, though.
