Windows 10 is becoming an unacceptable solution for many traders in terms of trust and stability. However, developing on Linux/Wine might require unwanted duplicate efforts (https://www.linuxmint.com/ & https://www.winehq.org/).

There is a Free binary-compatible Open Source alternative to Windows being developed, ReactOS (https://www.reactos.org/). This could be an unencumbered leg to rely on when/if Windows prove more and more troublesome, and would be a boon to run within a VM such as VirtualBox or VMWare on any x86-compatible platform.

Have your developers investigated ReactOS in terms of maturity and viability. I think many NT users would be happy to be able to switch to a Free alternative.
