(And does that post mean that V4 doesn't work well on Windows 10? Because I'm getting V4 and Dex as soon as he comes out and I obviously want to be able to use him, and keep being able to use Sonika, and start to be able to use Avanna because I only have V2 but I bought Avanna when she was on sale knowing that I'd be getting V3 or V4 later.)

I'm about to install Windows 10 (currently on Windows 8.1) and I don't have the resources to create recovery media as like a fail-safe in case something goes wrong or doesn't work. (UNLESS ANYONE KNOWS HOW I MIGHT CREATE MY RECOVERY MEDIA ON MY EXTERNAL HARD DRIVE! It is a 3TB WD My Book. You need the software and password to interact with it though, and I think because of that HP Recovery Manager doesn't seem to recognize that it's plugged in at all, even when it's unlocked. IF ANYONE KNOWS HOW I WOULD DO THIS PLEASE LET ME KNOW!!)

Also does anyone have any idea if UTAU (ver0.2.76 I think) will work on Windows 10?

What about MMD (Ver.8.03_English I think), will that still work? (It heats up my computer SOOO much. It's gone into thermal shutdown many times because of MMD. I'm a bit concerned about it. I sure hope I'm not frying or damaging my circuits.)

And-, and what about literally every single other program I have?! I swear, if they don't work I am personally going to kill you, Windows 10! >:(

Also, because I use UTAU and so I need my locale set to Japanese for non-Unicode, does anyone know if Windows 10 will get mad at that and like install in just Japanese or make Cortana speak only in Japanese or anything else that would have significant negative consequences?!

Is Windows 10 even worth it for me to download with all these risks? ARE THESE EVEN RISKS? I DON'T KNOW, THAT'S WHY I'M ASKING! DX

I understand that the Vocaloid Wikia isn't really the best place for some of these questions, but I'm a bit nervous and I'm kinda freaking out because to me my laptop is like (to quote Gollum) "my precious." If something goes wrong with this I am going to be so mad!

'''IF ANYONE KNOWS ANYTHING THAT MIGHT HELP ME, PLEASE LET ME KNOW IMMEDIATELY, LIKE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE PLEASE!!! DX'''

(I'll probably post a reply to this once/if I install Windows 10 just to let other people know if stuff does or doesn't work.  In the meantime I'll probably try to find some reviews of Windows 10 and just hope that someone responds to this. XP ) v4 works fine on windows 10.
