Default Any known issues with PT 2021.6 in Windows 10

Im about to Upgrade to PT 2021.6 from PT 2020.5 and I want to know if there are any known issues with PT 2021.6 in Windows 10 so far? I know a few version ago, PT 2020...would not work in Windows 10. Any insights here? Thanks!

“Would not work” is ambiguous at best. Every incarnation of it has bugs of one sort or another, but “would not work” is way off base.

It's working well on my HP on the latest patch of Win10. The Eucon connection is slightly less reliable, but a Eucon app restart always fixes it.

Aside from the usual install tediousness (always uninstall and restart before installing the new version), no issues here, and I canvassed opinion on this subject on the main 2021 thread and there were no negative reports there either. Pretty darn safe for Windows users at this point. (No issues with the EuCon update using the Artist Mix either).

I always update whenever a new version is released. But I always(as in ALWAYS) have a backup plan in case things go badly.

What sort of back up plan would you suggest for this update?

Drive imaging is the very least you should do. My plan; I keep multiple system drives(all 500GB Samsung SSD's). One is several months old(as in setup, not age) and has PT2019.12. One is my daily system drive. When a new version of PT is released, I clone the 3rd one from the daily drive, swap the fresh clone into the machine and update that. If it goes bad, I swap the previous drive back into the machine and go back to work. If it goes good, that drive becomes the daily and the previous will get cloned over for the next PT release Swapping drives is easy with a "no tool" drive cage(all my SSD drives are in adapter cases to fit a 3.5" drive cage).
