Ok so i have an SSL certificate installed, to access my online banking stuff. Now If i opt into upgrading to W10 (im on 7 Ult) will i have to reinstall those certificates? Ill probably back them up in any case, but it would be a relief knowing there is nothing to worry about, since it costs some money to get a new one :(

AFAIK, the update process doesn't touch any files that don't relate to the OS, i know third party programs and user files will remain intact but i'm not sure if the ssl won't be touched, though you could try to backup since 10 can restore backups made in 7, is in the preview now, you could try that with a VM, make a back up and trow it at it to see if it grabs the ssl

this is one of the greatest thing that has happened to me recently, and it happened on this forum, those involved have my eternal gratitude http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/198850-update-alex-got-his-moto-g2-lets-get-a-moto-g-for-alexgoeshigh-unofficial/ :')
