Ok, so on my laptop I am running Windows 8..and I am not a fan of it! A good number of my older sierra games weren't compatible like Gabriel Knight 3 and Kings Quest 7 and 8. quest for glory 5, and prob a few other ones that I haven't encountered yet. So, I kept my desktop at Windows 7, because I like it, and everything seems to be compatible...

My question is: Is it worth upgrading to Windows 10 now? Or is it not compatible with a lot of things as well?

Is Windows 10 worth upgrading to right now?

No..
Yes
No....but it's better than Win 7....

I'm still staying with Windows 8.1. I had to delete a Windows Update that has the "Force Windows 10 update" nonsense.
I think the update is called KB3035583. I even blacklisted that so I can normally update my Windows 8.1 without getting anymore updates on Widnows 10. I'll be happy staying in 8.1

Upgrade it BUT, just in case download your PC/laptop drivers, especially the LAN and Wifi drivers because I had some really bad issues with my WIfi driver disappearing like crazy, I had to make a clean format of my C drive (thankfully it's an SSD and not my main HDD) and decided to reinstall all of the stock drivers, after that my laptop has been working pretty good.

It's fine, If you don't want your privacy invaded, there are tools to deactivate all of those "nosy" features. I would look up how to turn off auto-updates, because by default, it's set to restart your PC even if you are still using it. All the games I've played on it work fine so far. Some of the more annoying things are the pre-installed programs and stuff, but with some tinkering, you can get rid of those too.
