Apple MacBook Pro 'Core 2 Duo' 2.4 13' Mid-2010 Specs
Download Apple MacBook Pro (13' Mid 2010) sound card drivers for Windows 7, XP, 10, 8, and 8.1, or install DriverPack Solution software. I´m typing this from a MBP mid 2010 13' using Windows 10 Pro. My MBP has a 2.66 GHZ C2D, 8 GB RAM and a SSD, W10 and the applications are performing fast. However, updating will not be as easy as just run the W10 upgrade. X64 (and probably x86) Windows 10 runs fine on the 2010 13' MacBook Pro (well, as well as it can with a Core 2 Duo and 6GB of RAM). However, it is a little involved. What you need prepared (on a flash drive perhaps): 1) Boot Camp 5.1.5769. 2) NVidia 327.23 Drivers.

The MacBook Pro 'Core 2 Duo' 2.4 13-Inch (Mid-2010) features a 45 nm 'Penryn' 2.4 GHz Intel 'Core 2 Duo' processor (P8600), with two independent processor 'cores' on a single silicon chip, a 3 MB shared 'on chip' level 2 cache, a 1066 MHz frontside bus, 4 GB of 1066 MHz DDR3 SDRAM (PC3-8500) installed in pairs (two 2 GB modules), a 250 GB Serial ATA (5400 RPM) hard drive, an 8X DL 'SuperDrive', a NVIDIA GeForce 320M 'graphics processor with 256 MB of DDR3 SDRAM shared with main memory', integrated iSight, and an LED-backlit 13.3' widescreen TFT active-matrix 'glossy' display (1280x800 native resolution).
Connectivity includes AirPort Extreme (802.11a/b/g/n), Bluetooth 2.1+EDR, Gigabit Ethernet, a Firewire '800' port, two USB 2.0 ports, the same 'combined optical digital output/headphone out (user-selectable analog audio line in)' port used by the iPhone, a 'Mini DisplayPort' that supports an external display at 2560x1600 (it also passes an audio signal), and an SD card slot. This model uses a 'Unibody' aluminum case design -- milled from a single piece of aluminum -- and has a backlit keyboard, a new 'no button' glass 'inertial' multi-touch trackpad, and a non-swappable battery design that provides up to 10 hours of battery life. Compared to its predecessor, this model has a very similar external enclosure, but an enhanced trackpad, and the same connectivity, except for the enhanced audio passing Mini DisplayPort. Internally, it has a similar architecture as well (with the same bus speed and memory), but has improved graphics and battery life. Also see:

This morning, Apple updated their Boot Camp app to version 6.0 bringing support for Windows 10 in an official capacity. Granted, users could already use the previous version to install Windows 10 as we demonstrated in our how-to using a MacBook Pro (2015).
One issue many users have complained about though is Apple does not support or enable any gesture support in Windows. We recently outlined some of these gestures in our comprehensive article '9 touchpad gestures every Windows 10 user should know' for those with a Precision touchpad.
However, there is a way to get it back using a free, third-party app called Trackpad++. Indeed, not only does this app bring gesture support but it also adds many fine-grained controls to make that trackpad even better. Some of the features include:
It should be noted that you need two apps to make this happen: Power Plan Assistant and the Trackpad++ software and drivers. The reason for this has to with needing a signed driver for 64-bit systems due to Microsoft's digital signature enforcement policy. The Power Plan Assistant evidently lets you install the Trackpad++ driver to override the one from Boot Camp. You still get a warning about installing it, but it should be overridden.
What is Power Plan Assistant? It is another free app the lets you toggle between balanced, battery saver and performance modes along with some shortcuts to some quick actions like logging off. I am not a huge fan of the app if only because I think it is a bit redundant and dated looking. Having said that, I do not see any deal breakers either. It does offer a snazzy battery percentage in the Task Bar, which many will like too.
Enable gesture support in Windows 10 on a Mac1. Download both apps
Power Plan Assistant and Trackpad++ thru the project's website (FileCluster hosts the apps). Forgive the terribly dated GeoCities-esque web design. Power Plan was last updated on July 30, 2015, and Trackpad++ was updated today, August 13, 2015, so they are very recent. There are no ads or spyware in the apps.
2. Double-click to install Trackpad++
You will get a warning and this is expected

Trackpad++ should now be installed and running in the notification area in the lower-right corner. Double-clicking it opens the configuration window.

Here is where you can see all of the settings. There are many, so take your time to configure to your liking. If you are a PC user, here is what I recommend for some basics.
Recommended Settings (for PC users)
You can, of course, configure all the gestures for the rest of three and four finger gestures, of which there are plenty.

One downside to this setup is the Trackpad++ Control Module needs to be updated weekly. As noted by the developer:
'NOTICE: Trackpad++ Control Module is free, but requires mandatory weekly update. If the week has passed and Trackpad++ ControlModule was not updated, Trackpad++ driver will be using the Boot Camp driver settings, unless the Trackpad++ Control Module is updated.'
Overall, if you are considering using Windows 10 on a Mac or picking up a Mac to run Windows 10, you will want to consider seriously using Trackpad++. The app is free, although you can make a donation to the developer to help support the project, which I recommend. Using the app all but completes the Windows-on-a-Mac experience and is worth giving a shot.
