Ditto here, except I have it running on two computers, one 32-bit and 
one 64-bit.   Both run all my Elecraft programs flawlessly, as well as 
my Propnet program for my 10M Automatically Controlled Digital Station 
on 28.1188 MHz.  The Propnet program runs 24/7 and other than occasional 
updates has been working continously.

I also use Fldigi 3.22.08 under Win 10 Preview, as well as HRD.  I am SO 
looking forward to the final release this summer.   I will probably 
upgrade all my computers to Windows 10 - it is that much better.  I 
hated Win 8.0 with a passion!  Win 8.1 was slightly better, but not even 
close to Win 10.  This from a dedicated Linux guy (my XYL runs Linux 
Mint exclusively, as do most computers that I need to operate 
continuously with no reboots).  I've been a Linux admin since 1995, so 
have worked with just about every flavor out there, including having 
been on most of the evaluation teams for DOS 5.0 and later, including 
Windows builds.
