Compatibility with previous Windows versions no longer maintained

I updated to Windows 10 last year. Before then, I was using Windows 7. Since everything works on Windows 10 even including some discontinued 1990s plugins via jBridge, I don’t see any reason not to update. My discontinued all in one mixer, control surface and interface didn’t have Windows 10 drivers and I had to install the Windows 10 firewire legacy driver to get it to work. That was the only issue. I might have had to enable unsigned drivers, I can’t remember. Basically, in terms of hardware drivers, generally speaking, if it runs on Windows 7, it will run on Windows 10 but you may need to enable unsigned drivers and some firewire interfaces will require the firewire legacy driver which has been removed in Windows 8.1 and Windows 10 but can be re-installed from this link FireWire port-based device does not work correctly in Windows 8.1 or Windows 8 - Microsoft Support
