Good to know. I wonder why the old software worked when the new software wouldn't. Also, what does the software do? I have never used a Netgear USB adapter. Does the software just install the USB driver or does it help with configuration? If so, and if it installs a seperate wireless client, then I wonder if that client is conflicting with Windowws Wireless Zero (default wireless client) or what ever it is called with Windows 10. Either way, you are better off using the standard windows wireless client instead of a 3rd party (Netgear), so maybe it's a blessing in disguise.
