Hi moosie4242
 
Welcome to the Community Forums.
 
You mention 'Spysweeper' and if you really have that on your system then I am fairly certain that you will need to remove it as it should not be Windows 10 compatible (nor Windows 8 or 7 for that matter).
 
But I suspect that what you really mean is SecureAnywhere.? If that is the case and you are being asked to remove it to be able to upgrade to Windows 10 then please do so...uninstalling is simple, and once you have upgraded the reinstall is simple and takes no more than 5 minutes usually...and if you need instructions on the reinstall then please post back as we can supply these.
