Re: Mbox3 W10 drivers and PT11
If you do decide to make the jump to Windows 10, just make sure you have a cloned image of your OS/ProTools drive backed up. In the event it doesn't work, you can revert back to the working configuration. Do you have a need to "upgrade" to Windows 10? As you can see from my details below, I am on a very old (but very stable) combination of Windows and PT. I use that particular computer for nothing but ProTools, no internet or games or anything else.
I know it is tempting to want to jump on anything that is "free", for fear of missing out. Yesterday it was announced that Microsoft's yearly revenue was down year over year for the first time since 2009 (the Great Recession). I have a feeling that it won't be long that the "free" upgrades to W10 will be converted to an annual paid subscription. I haven't read the terms and conditions of the W10 license agreement, as I haven't converted my Windows 7 and 8 computers, and won't be doing so any time soon because W10 does not support Windows Media Center which I use a lot for recording TV programs and watching TV while working on the computer. But I would assume that the terms and conditions for W10 do not grant a perpetual license to use the product.
It's up to you, that is just my 2 cents worth (maybe only worth 1 cent).
