Hi,

 

You may hear all type of negative as well as positive on Windows 10. What I would advise from an Inventor/Autodesk end is before migrating a system from one OS (Windows 7 in your case) to Windows 10 is to do a clean uninstall of your Inventor product. The reason for that is each OS has different methods of dealing with our files. Installing on new OS will ensure that you set up a more stable install of Inventor. 

 

I would only install Inventor 2016 as your version of Inventor 2013 was never intended for Windows 10. Once install and be running I would also apply all updates and service packs for your version of Inventor.
