hi,

it depends on your Hardware whether Windows 10 will run or not.

i did not found big Problem when run "full GUI" Xbase++ Application, only "Border Padding" are wrong.
i got Problem on 32bit OS() when try to open a CMD-Box and start 16bit Application. it does work with Command.COM (!!!)

Hi Jimmy,
Because I have not Windows 10 installation, I am affraid develop software for client, who have this os, and big virtual machines.
Must be sure compatibility, if created application not run, I lose several months work time and some money ...

For example I have problem with web browser (programmed by source webpool) on my new notebook, where is Windows 8.1 64bit and Internet Explorer 11.
Coded url do not run correctly.
On my desktop with Windows 7 32bit and IE 11 too is not problem.
But maybe it is problem with settings IE, do not know.

this is why M$ give us "Tech Preview" for test-drive ...
Windows 10 does not have IE any more ... not sure how "Spartan" works ( i'm using Firefox )

Hi ,

Yesterday I tested my Alaska Xbase++ + eXpress application on PC with Windows 10. I found not any problem, also opening internet explorer window from my application, and opening external program with runshell.


PS: my client has surprise me with PC with W10 and I must install application apprehensively...
