I've had a very solid run as a Video DJ with Win32 pro 32bit but it's time to upgrade now that ya'll have worked out the kinks.

Is Windows 10 64bit Home and OK upgrade or should I go with the more expensive product to avoid random upgrade reboots??

My controller is a Numark NS6's (ver1)

Am I going to like the new system or should I wait awhile longer?

Windows 10 is fine in the main, the biggest issue with it is borked updates, and the fact that one of them could cause issues as has happened quite a lot now.

You'll also need to check that all the hardware in your older machine has windows 10 drivers as that can cause problems when upgrading. Take an image of your current setup using Aomei backupper or something like that so at least you can go back to where you were if something screws up.

Personally I install it, make sure everything runs as required then disable automatic updates. It is possible to do without buying the more expensive version by disabling services. there are plenty of tutorials on the web about how to do this.

I'm running version 1709 and it's been perfect with VDJ.
