I upgraded all my machines from Windows 7 to Windows 10 some time ago, and I have not faced any problem keeping all Studio licences/settings.

Same here, I upgraded 2 or 3 machines that way.

Further to Claudio Nasso and Jerzy Czopik answers-
the one thing that you should remember to do, is to deactivate your Studio licences before upgrading the OS.
Then once you have upgraded the OS and reinstalled Studio (if needed) you can simply reactivate the software.

I didn't even do that. Simply upgraded the OS and ALL software was working as previously. However it is worth to note, that I do not have a lot of different software on my PC. These are only programs I need for work plus a MP3 player and a video player. There is no more fun software here. And more or less every single program is in quite latest version (only Corel is an old version).

Same here as noted by Jerzy Czopik.
All business/registered/updated applications already installed were working as expected before upgrading without any problem.
I upgraded both my machines on Day 1. One went smoothly, the other didn't. I put this down to an early release glitch, but at least put your TMs up on the cloud, just in case.
Many thanks, everyone! I have today successfully upgraded to Windows 10. I took a chance by "not deactivating" anything and it went all fine. Seems like legacy Trados memory is working without problem, too.
