Well, I'm glad somebody said it; I didn't want to be the first ;-)

Not that I'd entirely blame Windows 10 there; many games are developed
for specific Operating Systems and have problems with later versions.
It's the nature of the beast and Microsoft has gone to amazing lengths
to maintain backwards compatibility. Unfortunately, games are often
the biggest loser in the process. I mean, just the changes to the
drivers can cause all sorts of problems.

Win7 is still the defacto platform for many developers. Using anything
else - especially for games developed in the last five years or so -
is just asking for extra headaches.
