BrookeAdams Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 It would depend on what type of install you do. To be safe I would back up anything you don't want to lose. Over the last few months of using the beta versions I have had windows 10 fail on several machines and none of the recovery methods worked other than a clean install which of course meant all files being erased.

No I won't run 10 on a computer I care about for any time to come. And FSX will be even further out. Being an old chopper guy I usually fly low and slow.

mabe5454 Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 N4gix is right. If you do the UPGRADE all the contents in your C: drive will be preserved if they are compatible with Win 10. In my case, only one program didn't make it. I found the update for Win 10 and replaced it. All on board now. MSFS did make it along with a gazillion others. I love Cortana even if she is a little shy and confused but full of jokes. Cheers, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johanno4 Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 Hi After upgrading to Windows 10, Add-on HD Jetliners from Just Flight loaded with missing parts, i.e. missing virtual cockpits, no aircraft showing in outside view. Frame rate was also below 9 fps. After installing older Nividia drivers, the shortcomings remained. As a last resort I uninstalled and re-installed the relevant aircraft and everything is now working correctly. Am very impressed with Windows 10.

horacea Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 While fsx was working perfectly with win 8.1 when I upgraded to win 10 I get a black window when I choose a plane and a Black screen with sound when I try to fly. I have Nvidia Geforce GTX 970. Any idea why the incompatability with Win 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timber-Ghost Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 While fsx was working perfectly with win 8.1 when I upgraded to win 10 I get a black window when I choose a plane and a Black screen with sound when I try to fly. I have Nvidia Geforce GTX 970. Any idea why the incompatability with Win 10 I had to switch to "Preview DirectX 10" to get any preview pane, or any type of flight. Under settings, graphics, and the "Preview DirectX 10" needs to be checked. I still have other issues, and still trying to work them out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewDaPilot Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 DO NOT GET WINDOWS 10 IF YOU INTEND TO PLAY FSX!!! There are still many bugs that need fixing. Let other people have problems and report the bugs and wait till everything is fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSkorna Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 After 3 full days of using Win 10 I will say that Win 10 is THE VERY BEST OS I have ever used. There are NOT bugs. I am NOT experiencing ANY pain and suffering. I AM NOT debugging a single thing because that is what the beta testers did. I am not giving away my privacy. I am not suffering from any automatic updates. FSX and ALL my add-ons are working great. EVERY other program I had running under Win 7 is now RUNNING under Win 10 without me doing a single thing. Ignore the doom and gloom folks and do what you think is best for your situation. http://www.air-source.us/images/sigs/000219_195_jimskorna.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
