Continuing to run on W10 is really dangerous
I'm gonna be blunt and straightforward, but please stop with this. It's rehearsing the Microsoft bullshit to make everyone switch OS and get the new invasive slop/enshitified OS.
I've been running outdated Windows versions ( outside of Windows lifecycle when the OS was depreciated ) since 30 years. And
every single massive security issue that broke some systems were
during the update lifecyle of Windows. And I don't plan to update to 11 up until the whole industry forces you to (with software that becomes incompatible with the previous OS)... which will probably occur way down the line and not even on Win11 lifecycle.
You will pretty much never have issues with your system if you have a proper setup for your internet connection ( either a properly configured router, and/or a clean firewall and antivirus )... AND you behave properly with what you are accessing and what you are downloading. IE : ensure you trust the source, don't click random links, don't trust people you don't know that are contacting you directly (through PMs or other means), don't open emails you did not ask for... etc etc...
The first security for your PC is
YOU.
Security failures often comes from a lack of knowledge on how to setup / secure an OS, OR a user interaction. Most users hijacked by ransomwares were because of their actions on actual update to date systems. I still have an old Win XP PC for a NAS backup that runs perfectly fine and has access to internet. I never had any issue.
All that said, to answer
@raur1968 , Windows version does not matter for Daz... up until it does. Genesis characters are just assets. If Daz Studio runs on your PC, you can use whatever.
So the idea is to check what OS versions Daz allows, and that's all. But again, it's highly unlikely Daz will depreciate Win 10 in the coming years... it still runs on Win 7. And I'm almost sure that the 32bits runs on even older versions.
