Here is the first question: After the final reboot the update process
reported that Spybot S&D was "not compatible with this version of
Windows" and had been removed. However it was not removed. The icon
was there, and when I tried it, it seems to work just fine. Any
comments on this?

I had been of the understanding that S&D was not compatible with W10 but
the site says that it is compatible, so I just installed it (V 2.7) and
it seems to be working OK. Quess WinUpdate just didn't know how to
handle S&D, suggest reinstalling it to be safe.


I had a program like that. PGP desktop always worked under Windows
10, but major upgrades to Windows 10 would refuse to install if PGP
was installed. I had to uninstall PGP, do the upgrade, and then
reinstall PGP. That worked every time, but I never figured out why. I
now use VeraCrypt instead of 10-year-old PGP, so the problem is
solved.
