I too just a short time ago upgraded to Win 10. I didn't have any progs disappear on me. They are all still there just Win 10 doesn't show them. You have to go hunt for them as I did on a few progs. Then I just created new shortcuts. I did run into about 4 progs I had to upgrade, for them to run in Win 10 though. So far I haven't had too many SERIOUS problems. But if things get much worse though I will be rolling back to Win 7. By the way Win 7 has about 4 more years to it before all support ends. Since it was a free upgrade at the time I went for it earlier then I usually do. Normally I wait till support totally ends. Which in most cases the new OS in this case Win 10 would be mature enough to upgrade to. At this time I might recommend to upgrade to it if you can get it free, otherwise I would wait unless you are an early adopter as I am.
