So today's the day windows 10 have launched, I have a update in control panel waiting to upgrade my windows 8.1 Pro (Pirated) to Windows 10, I just want to ask will updating my OS to the new one retain my Programs??
I Have a lot of programs & games installed like GTA V, CS:GO, Asseto corsa etc & dont want to lose the games and as well as the required programs (Nvidia Drivers, Visual C++ etc).
So will updating my OS Cause any problem to my files??.
I just dont want to install all the programs again like i just had a clean boot.
Please Reply if you have updated your OS.

CSGO GTAV & AC in particular will work in Windows 10.
I just dont want to install all the programs again like i just had a clean boot.
You won't lose files when officially updating.

Ofcourse but will be redundant as Win 10 supports most things 7/8 already uses.
