Except that now you're going to be running any PC software under and
emulator, which might or might not work perfectly...
I'm pretty sure that Adobe CC products will be nearly, or completely
impossible to install that way. You might be able to get the stand
alone versions to work, but that means no more updates for you.
A while back I looked at the GIMP for windows and was appalled at the
UI. OK so it was probably just my Adobe use biasing me. But life is
too short to learn to use a UI that seems to be different only for
differences sake, especially since it at the time it was so far behind
Adobe that my years old version of Photoshop was just as capable.

This might be a good time to reconsider your position on Windows 10.
You've got two years left before Microsoft drop all support for W7.
That means there won't even be any security updates after Jan 2020.
F*** 'em. I'll figure out how to install Linux ... or maybe turn it
into a Hackintosh.
UBUNTU is an easy install. Download the file and write it to a DVD - maybe a
memory stick by now, shove it in the machine and follow instructions.
Automatically installs Firefox and Thunderbird. (Windows) problems fixed,
permanently.
