a quick check on Windows 10 shows that the basics do work.

But what about the new features:

1. Code/Profile Signing
Windows 10 complained again that this program lacks a recognized publisher 
cert,
I had to click "Trotzdem ausführen" (Execute despite of lacking cert).
AFAIR, code signing had been announced as one of the upcoming CAT 2.0 
improvements
on the German mailing list.

2. Built-In sanity check of username
Me and others had a bit of trouble getting the username right during
the Windows install. No big deal, but Tomasz Wolniewicz wrote:

So for 2., we will have to edit our profile first,right?
(presumably not yet productive for German admins)
