I can say as someone who used Xp for probably longer than I should have done, I am not disappointed with Windows 10, which is odd because I was less keen on windows 7 :D.
Still with classic shell to get the xp style start menu and C cleaner to remove the stuff I didn’t want (something I had to equally do with new xp machines back in the day), I really haven’t had to alter what I do too much, accept now I can enjoy all available audiogames, indeed I suspect for gaming purposes these days there are probably more games that won’t run on xp than on windows 10. My only major regret with lack of Xp are the dos style console games like Fallthru, eamon deluxe etc, and I have heard there are now talking versions of Dosbox that can go some way to solving those, indeed I do hope the eamon deluxe developer gets back to me at some point in the future since we finally might have that accessible cross platform version of the games we’ve been wanting for years. All the best, Dark.

XP support is long over, so at least from my perspective I don’t feel obligated to still support it.
