3 D effects are missing in Illustrator 10

I am using Illustrator 10, student edition for windows. For those who can't understand why I use such an old version, please forgive me, I was laid off my job while in school and didn't see a reason to up grade. (I've left out a lot out.) Since then, I have had to buy a few different computers, and of new operating systems. Until now, that has not been a problem. I now have a computer with windows 10, with latest updates. When I attempt to use this program on my windows 10 computer, I find there are no 3 D effects tools. I tried uninstalling, reinstalling the program. It didn't help. I would upgrade, but unfortunatly, that is no longer a option. Since I am retired, I cannot afford a subscription. Any helpful suggestions are welcome. Thank-you.

Correct answer Monika Gause

3D-Effects have been introduced in version CS1 (which was the version after 10)

nicketti,

 

"I now have a computer with windows 10, with latest updates. When I attempt to use this program on my windows 10 computer, I find there are no 3 D effects tools. I tried uninstalling, reinstalling the program."

 

I believe it is a wonder that you can install and use AI10 on a (current) Windows 10.

 

And what Monika said.

Actually, it was 10.0.01

Ah, now I see, I looked at my old desktop, which still boots up. It has Illustrator CS on it. I knew I have made 3D effects in the past with Illustrator. I must have upgraded at least to CS. But, now, How do I get the up graded version from my desktop to my new laptop?
