Anyone know if you need to re-install the COD games if you upgrade to Windows10? States you do for a "Clean Install", which wipes all, but not if you are just upgrading. Anyone having issues after upgrading?

 

Other softwares, like Office, printer softwares, etc? Considering upgrading, but not certain after reading:

I would do a clean install but you can give the upgrade a try. You cant go backwards if you do a clean install as well. Good luck.

look here Samsung  data migration

 

Acronis True Image WD Edition can clone drives

 

 DiscWizard  for  Seagate          Seagate DiscWizard does not provide for cloning a single partition. You can only clone the entire drive

Thanks all! Spent a few hours researching the many forums and Youtube. Pros and cons, since last day of free upgrade. So, took the plunge and so far no issues. Even got a few rounds of cod since. Going lock down some of the privacy concerns, also tutorials on YouTube for it. Haven't had to reinstall anything, not even drivers. Too soon to say, but some nice features.

Just know over time what you lock down they will unlock if hey want to. I was turning things off and every update it was turning things back on. That's when I had enough.

  note: before upgrade should check win10 drivers for your hardware, if have then save on a USB, extracted if compressed

 the Windows 10 free upgrade offer ended on July 29, 2016.

 
Windows 10 will continue to be available for purchase, either on a device or as a full version of the software. A discounted "upgrade" version of Windows 10 will not be for sale.

For the general public, the free upgrade offer for Windows 10 ends on July 29. However, if you use assistive technologies, you can still get the free upgrade offer even after the general public deadline expires as Microsoft continues our efforts to improve the Windows 10 experience for people who use these technologies.

With the Windows 10 Anniversary Update, we’ve taken a number of steps to improve the accessibility of Windows 10 accessibility. To learn more, read our blog that details some of these improvements.

Before you upgrade, please check with your assistive technology provider(s) to learn more about their software compatibility with Windows 10.

Yes, I use assistive technologies and I am ready for my free upgrade to Windows 10.

Just know over time what you lock down they will unlock if hey want to. I was turning things off and every update it was turning things back on. That's when I had enough. 

 

What are you hiding Hxtr?! I got nothing of value on my system, so not too concerned. Don't keep my finances or top secret stuff on my PC. I believe I would still be more susceptible to a virus than someone stealing something off my system. So far, I'm liking Windows 10, but not a big change from what I see.
