I am running windows 8.1 64 bit single language
1. How can I verify that my non-windows applications will be compatible with windows 10?
2. My biggest concerns are the compatibility of Kaspersky, Dragon Nuance Speech recognition, Autocrit, Scriviner and Whitesmoke - all being quite expensive.

Hello Dirk and welcome to the forums. Just go to the developer's site and see, or a download site like Major Geeks if they have updated it for Win 10, although most Win 8.1 software will work. Your AV has been:
