    I have a few programs that I use on Windows 7 and Windows 8.1. I'm wondering if they will work on Windows 10. A couple of these I just bought. And I also have a couple I'd like to buy right now like dbpoweramp.

    I've not played with Windows 10 yet and have not read up on it much either so keep that in mind, as it might be obvious by this post anyway.

    What I'm curious about is if Windows 10 will be such an OS that older programs will not work on it.

    For instance just one such program I still use Office 2010. Will Office 2010 work just fine with Windows 10?

    Is it generally understood by those in the know, that if it works with 8/8.1 that it should work with 10?
