Does anyone know if Windows 7 programs can be installed like normal on Win10 systems?

So far Google only told me that programs already installed in Win7, then upgraded to Win10 has no problems.

What about clean install?
Am asking because have a new laptop with Win10 and considering changing to Win7 But if the programs can install normally, then I might think twice....

in general they will work, especially adobe collection and ms.office. if you're unsure, you can always check out the compatibility at the websites of software developers.

oh yeah w10 auto upgrade is a pita. luckily for you everything is still fine.

if possible do a clean install after backing up all data. it will be much better (getting rid of all weird issues)
