Default Windows 10; will it break the game?

Question towards anyone who has updated to win 10 on their PC's, do you know if it will break your game and delete everything on the pc? like a factory reset type of deal?

Good question ! No idea. I would hate to have to go back to resetting everything up again having just got things stable.

That's a good answer, this is what I was afraid off...

You're fine. As long as it's not a spam ad to buy something links to helpful sites are always welcome.

I was talking to the IT guy where I work and he said to give Win 10 about 6 months before you even think about ungrading. He said let MS get some of the kinks out of it first.

Just a thought for those of you who may be contemplating going to Win 10 like I am.
