There's several issues where Win10 might be less secure:
  • Almost universally, new features in any program/operating system tend to bring new security issues
  • Older Windows operating systems (excluding those they quit updating) tend to be more secure as there's been more time to fix problems
  • Win7 dominates the desktop Enterprise space, where security failures would be most painful, so it probably gets Microsoft's best people

On the other hand, a major upgrade has given Microsoft the chance to harden components such as the kernel, fixing small issues which might turn into vulnerabilities even if they are not currently exploitable. Those changes haven't been backported to Windows 7 because of the risk of regressions.

Most notable is that Microsoft removed support for SafeDisc and SecuROM DRM systems which are used by some old games. There Microsoft sacrificed some backwards compatibility in the name of security.

This looks like a fun program to work with:

I wish there were an equivalent program for open source alternatives.
