Well, main thing is stopped the software maintenance/upgrade programme with
FS after jaws 14, because didn't want to pay for the next SMA then, so
chances are either current jaws 16, or jaws 17 that will be released end of
this year will handle it better, but, for example, one of the guys who's
involved in NVDA development already mentioned on the blind programmer's
mailing list that NVDA devs are working with pre-release versions of windows
10 already, and are pretty close to being comfortable with it's handling
thereof.
Stay well

After had received confirmation e-mail that I would be able to carry out
free windows 10 upgrade at some stage, moving over from my current windows 7
64 bit, I played around with the system tray icon relating to windows 10
upgrade confirmation, etc., and when I told it to check device/PC
compatibility, it told me the following:
This PC can be upgraded but there may be some issues.
These devices aren't fully compatible with Windows 10
Freedom Scientific Mirror Display Driver
You'll experience problems with your display.
Apps
These apps might not work correctly after the upgrade.
Freedom Scientific Talking Installer 14.0
Freedom Scientific JAWS 14.0
This is sort of confirmation that chances are that at some stage, NVDA will
definitely become my primary screen reader of choice...<smile>
