[Framers] Windows 10 "hijacked" my computer

[Art Campbell]

If you're simply upgrading from 7/8>10, it'll probably happen painlessly
and you can revert if need be. (The files can be deleted at some point in
the future if you decide you need more disk space.)
As others mentioned, expect some drivers updates... applications are less
likely to be affected, but the older they are, probably the more likely
they will be. You don't mention your hardware platform, but if you're on a
64bit, you can expect some quickness to show up.
