No, really - your AV will probably be replaced with Windows Defender (if it's not detected or deemed not current), and anything Microsoft decides it doesn't like will be removed before you're allowed to upgrade.
Oh yeah, and then there's the "feature deprecation" - the fuckwits don't know what deprecation means, because what they're doing is removing Windows Media Centre, DVD playback, desktop gadgets, and Hearts.

...Except Candy Crush. Because Microsoft is just epic when it comes to jumping on bandwagons that have already gone the distance...
They are then bringing in others, including Candy Crush, which has always been shit and yet is still trundling along in its shitness in some quarters so its not really surprising that they'd try and lure people into upgrading by using it.

That really better have been deliberate irony, though I fear it were not and thus you deserve nothing less than a hard slap on the cheeks.
The official Windows upgrade thing says: Solitaire, Minesweeper and Hearts Games that come pre-installed on Windows 7 will be removed as part of installing the Windows 10 upgrade. Microsoft has released our version of Solitaire and Minesweeper called the “Microsoft Solitaire Collection” and “Microsoft Minesweeper”.
Also, Google's suggested search is a bit sinister...
