August 6, 201510 yr Library Administrator Good afternoon, I am wondering if anyone was brave enough to install Windows 10 yet. If so, has there been compatibility issues? I am very tempted to install it, but am nervous that my PMDG and other high end addons will cease to work properly. Any insight would be awesome. Thank you. Brian A.

August 6, 201510 yr I updated after the official release. Using P3D 2.5 + hotfix 6 + PMDG (737 and 777) + ASN + ORBX (lot of products) + FSDT products etc. Seems to be working better than before with Win7 Fábio Magnoni

August 6, 201510 yr Just curious, and I know it shouldn't have much effect, but has the VAS usage changed at all (either good or bad) while using W10?

August 6, 201510 yr I think it's OS related, but I didn't have any OOM after the upgrade and I was having some with Win 7 Fábio Magnoni
August 6, 201510 yr I actually did something I never usually do and went ahead with the in-place upgrade on my main PC, and everything works fine. No issues and I think a slight FPS increase but that is hard to quantify. Wes Meyer

August 6, 201510 yr Not sure if NVidia with the latest driver is using DX12 from Win 10. Because without any tweak every CPU is loading very balanced. One of the improvements from DX 12 is exactly that, not using only the first core, but all of them. Fábio Magnoni
August 6, 201510 yr I did have an issue where the quartz font was not installed into the OS fonts directory. (used in the NGX display). Right-clicking on the font inside the PMDG folder fixed it.
