Did you elect to install Win10, or did you discover that a routine
'upgrade' to Win7 had done it for you? Excuse my paranoia, but stories
of unwanted, automated upgrades to Win10 are circulating
http://www.theregister.co.uk/2015/08/13/two_weeks_of_windows_10_how_is_microsoft_doing/

I've switched off automatic upgrade downloading/installing to my Win7
machine: the PC prompts me that an upgrade is available, but I have
the option of scrutinising each patch before installing.

If so, this is worrying. RPCEmu is no longer my primary RISC OS
platform, but any decision to return it to this status would depend
upon stable, i.e., surviving reboot, networking.
