I recently purchased the Durametric Enthusiasts Package from our host to enable more in-depth work to be done on my new (to me) 997.

As I had a few old computers lying around I practised downloading Durametric's version 6 onto each of these, experiencing no problems in both downloading and opening the software. These two computers ran with the superseded Vista, XP and Windows 7 versions of Windows.

However, when attempting the same process on a brand new laptop running with the Windows 10 operating system I ran into problems. The software would download okay but would not open. A box would appear advising "Durametric has stopped working" but would quickly disappear, spawning no error messages. I repeated the downloading process with the virus protection disconnected to guard against any unintentional blocking of the software but to no avail,------the program still refused to open. I then ran a compatibility check of the software which produced a "program not compatible" message.

As a further check I attempted the downloading/opening process on two more computers operating with the Windows 10 system only to achieve the same results or lack thereof!

To summarise,----

(a) Version 6 of the software from Durametric's site will download and open satisfactorily using the earlier versions of the Windows operating system but appears to have compatibility issues with the Windows 10 operating system.

(b) System requirements for downloading/operating this software as stated on the Durametric site include references to Windows 10 as being a suitable operating system.

(c) My experience would appear to indicate otherwise!

Any thoughts, ideas, remedies, will be very much appreciated.
