Hi @@retiredee72

 

There are too many variables to answer that with assurance. If you do a search on 43oh you will find a few posts from people who had problems with the transition to Windows 10 (and frquently the solution). Personally I found Energia to work better with Windows 10 and have had no problem with CCS.

I would say yes, it would affect things negatively. At minimum it will make setting up your development environment more difficult, and potentially impossible without software patches.

 

My thoughts are always " if it is not broken, do not fix it" Meaning if you have something that works, don't upgrade, just for the sake of upgrading.

I would say "no", it shouldn't affect anything.

 

Energia on Windows is basically, just that.

 

Where you may have problems is with drivers for the LP, but I've yet to see anything I haven't been able to easily rectify... save for if I'm moving from 32bit Windows to 64bit.

Thanks to Fmilburn,Yyrkoon,and abecedarian for very good advice.

I will go ahead with free window 10 upgrade sometime before end of July 29 .

if it is does not work out, I can always go back  to window 7, while still preserving option with free "window 10 upgrade" .

Hello abecedarian,

I just installed Energia 17, however all my sketches were developed using Energia 11.
