Win10 deals "weirdly" with hardware, but most of those issues can be fixed. 

FYI, I've been dealing with 'pooters' since about 1970, and yet when I run into Win10 
problems, I simply search for similar problems on the web. I have yet to run across a 
problem which has NOT been seen before.

Yes.

Ha! Join the club. :-)

All of our computers here (6 of them) are using Win10, and WSJTX runs fine on my shack 
computer. My rig there is a Yaesu FT-890 at the moment. Yaesu's are notorious for never 
using the same control codes twice, yet my rig is working fine now, including with CAT.

If I can help, let me know. I'll try.
