Hello there,

To upgrade to Windows 10 successfully from Windows XP, you would need to back up all your files and programs.

We hope this was helpful to you.

NO.
I recently upgraded from Windows Vista HP to Windows 10 Home and as expected, lost ALL programs and data. All my data was in cloud storage and I had run Belarc Advisor to snapshot my Vista machine's hardware and software and put that report in the cloud too.

I have an old (2002) WIndows XP PC but will not even attempt to upgrade. In the past I ran the WIndows 7 upgrade advisor on it and it advised to NOT upgrade. The Vista PC, however, was found OK to upgrade by the Windows 7 and Windows 8 upgrade advisors. Since a Windows 7 machine in most instances will upgrade to Windows 10, I had confidence mine would, and it did.

Since I know my XP would not make it to Windows 7, I won't try to upgrade that PC to Windows 10. It is 13 years old, and I've gotten my money's worth. I'll keep it running as long as I can.
