There's been a little talk re W10, but nothing too revealing. Wondering if there are any SC power users that have noticed an improvement of CPU utilization (cpu load balance too) from upgrading from W7 to W10 or was it not worth the trouble in hindsight?

From our perspective we would not use Windows 10 right now. We do not see how there would be any improvement with CPU utilization.

As a Wdoz 10 user I would agree with SC's comments - do NOT upgrade. If anything it will be negative to the performance of SC.

I can trade with it no problem, but all the stats (like CPU utilisation etc) are worse. This is to say nothing of the general frustration with W10, especially around the auto/forced updating of W10 (which if you are not careful WILL occur while you are trading).

You're not serious are you, do you really mean that Microsoft has to change Windows 10 so that Sierra chart will work ???
I love Sierra but I don't think that is goiing to happen !!
I still got an old vista computer and I really need to buy a new computer soon, but there are only new ones with windows 10 on it!!!
So....what do you recommend? Is sierra not working properly on Windows 10??

Sierra Chart does work with Windows 10.

But as usual because Windows 10 is new, you will have problems with it. Not with Sierra Chart but with the operating system. We never said that Sierra Chart does not work with Windows 10.
