Hi All, Thank you for the responses. Yes, from my extensive googling and pounding through the forums, it does seem that FM 10 and 12 both run just fine on Windows 10. And based on the statement that I pulled from HowToGeek, that would make sense; however, as only FM2015 is explicitly called out as being compatible with Win 10, I am understandingly a bit hesitant, but I probably won't have a choice.
Carrier pigeon anyone? Thanks!

FM 10 and 12 run on my Windows 10 system with no issues. Not sure about Acrobat as I avoid it when I can other than to convert files to PDF or to read them. That works fine, but I don't know about other functions in there.

All, I might be forced to upgrade to Windows 10 from Windows 7 Ultimate. (The reasons are not important.) I have FM 10, FM 12 and Adobe Acrobat Pro XI currently installed. Here is a comment that I found on HowToGeek's website: **************************************************************************** **************************************************************************** ********* Microsoft's Windows 10 seems like a big change. The version number alone is a big leap from Windows 7, and most of the default apps are new-style "universal apps," not traditional desktop apps. But, if you depend on traditional Windows desktop applications, you shouldn't worry. Don't let Windows 10's new look fool you - if an application ran on Windows 7, it should also run on Windows 10. **************************************************************************** **************************************************************************** ***** But, is this true? Will FM 10 and 12 and Adobe Acrobat XI run on Windows 10? (64-bit system). Have any of you had experience (good/bad/indifferent) running these programs on Windows 10? Thanks!
