So...what's the verdict?

So.....in a short answer................DON'T install AC18 or AC19 on a Windows10 OS........just yet.
too many "issues".
Is this a correct statement?

From what I understand, isn't the MicroSoft offices "right" next door to the GS Headquarters? The programmers from both companies should have a lunch pow-wow session. Make sure coding talks to each other properly.....wouldn't you think?

What I am reading is that AC18/19 are supported, there are a few small issues you can work around, but nothing major.
Steve Jepson, for example, reported that it is working for him just fine:

Excellent!
I trust Steve Jepson's opinion. He's a great techie-guru of sorts.
