Which type of software and drivers should I uninstall before Windows 10?

[Ink]

Before upgrading, which type of software and drivers are recommended to be uninstalled? I use Windows Defender, so no third-party Antivirus.

At the moment, I am considering Nvidia Drivers and GeForce Experience software. What about Intel-related and Intel Graphics drivers?

What have you uninstalled?

@Huracan Before you upgrade, try out this: http://www.zdnet.com/article/will-y...ell-hidden-compatibility-checker-to-find-out/

It should let you know if something is not compatible.

Considering third-party software remains intact, I've uninstalled the ethernet, audio and display drivers.

Nothing is reported by that tool. I checked the Nvidia Forums and users have posted some issues.

@Huracan Thanks for the reply.

I have Nvidia driver installed. I downloaded driver several months ago and it works without any issues.

I thought only 3rd-party security softwares should be uninstalled before upgrading to Windows 10. So, other softwares should be uninstalled too before upgrading?

An update: Upgraded via the Media Creation tool x64 to Windows 10 Home.

Unless you have a third-party Antivirus installed, I didn't uninstall any Software or Drivers.

Media creation Tool --- There are 2 options upgrade & bootable USB/DVD, right?
How does the upgrade works i.e does it downloads & installs/upgrades Win 10? And later can you prepare ISO & bootable USB with Install.esd?
How does the creation of bootable USB works i.e does it downloads & gives the options to create bootable USB?

Whats the app size of Win 10 downloads for 64 Bits Home?

I used the first option, Upgrade. It downloaded the files and started updating. Kept all personal files and programs. I think it was 5-6GB unpacked, but I didn't check. FYI, Windows 64-bit is larger than 32-bit.
