Windows 10 Important Questions

[nakedtons]

Hi there! Are drivers and software installed on my current Windows 7 Pro compatible with Windows 10? After Windows 10 installation, will my files still be intact? Do I need to install all my drivers and software from scratch?

Microsoft has said numerous times that it should work, so you should be fine.

Yes, you should be fine; I'm using the preview and none of my drivers/software became incompatible. When I first started there were various driver problems with my mic in particular, but they were fixed over time. Yeah, you're good.

You should be fine, but like you should do for any upgrade - make sure you have a good backup before you start the upgrade

Thanks for all your answers! Just need to know if the files stored in "Documents" etc will still be intact!

They "should" be. But to be on the safe side back them up before you start. If everything works as planned, you're set. If not, at least you'll have your files backed up.
