The game works perfectly with Win 10. Just install the game and play. The only Windows things you might need in addition to that are:-
alt+tab to access 3rd party info while playing
Where the log files are so that you can see what happened when you got killed C:\Users\USER\Saved Games\Frontier Developments
Where the keybindings are stored in case you want to make your own backup. C:\Users\USER\AppData\Local\Frontier Developments\Elite Dangerous\Options\Bindings
Windows key + G to bring up the recording suite to record your game-play
