No need to transfer any files. Just open the Windows 10 version and select the notebooks you want just as you would with OneNote 2016. You can have them both installed on your PC (as I do) and you can work in either of them because the changes you make are saved back to OneDrive and then sync across each of your OneNote instances. You can open 2016, make a change, close it then go to W10 and it will catch up with the changes in seconds. I have 2016 & the W10 versions on 3 machines and OneNote Mobile on my phone. They all keep in sync regardless of which one I use to make changes.
If you have Notebooks saved to your PC then use OneNote 2016 to move them to OneDrive and then you can pick them up in the W10 version.
