Re: yes, yes...
No, but worse: it turns out that, without notice but by connecting the dots, you find that, if your Win7-converted-to Win10 box gets a corrupted partition table, the Microsoft-preferred USB recovery won't work.
Why?
Because you updated from Win7, which most likely used MBR. Win10's USB install/recovery drive uses UEFI for boot support and can't switch over to MBR-based partition tables (firmware limitation, causing a software issue). So BOOTREC can't rebuild the boot records because it can't access the HDD/SSD, locking you out.
You need to boot from DVD. A hidden gotcha, modern laptops who converted and lose their partition table, yet have no optical drive, may be royally screwed.
