Nor am I. I haven't even attempted to get Windows 10, though I keep getting the message saying get it. I have Windows 7 also on my pc. If I did try you can bet it would go horrible wrong, it usually does if I try anything different on the pc.

Is your browser IE10 or IE11 (in IE, click "Help" in the toolbar and then "About Internet Explorer" to get the version number)?

Re: Windows 10

For those who don't like the 'tiled' approach to program shortcuts, here is something that can be done with a program called 'Start10' The permutations of appearance are numerous. Others can make it look more like windows 7. Very easy to switch the style between Windows 10, 7 and custom:

Re: Windows 10

I downloaded W10 when it first came out..lots of problems like no sound, which with googling got sorted then other problems then it froze on me had to resort to safe mode to reverted to W7.

Just downloaded a week ago to W10 again so far no problems and a lot faster in loading.

One major plus is viewing your pictures there must be others but have not explored in depth yet.

On the whole now the bugs have been sorted W10 I find it much better than 7.

Yes I did it years ago with micrografx icture publisher which, incidentally I have now managed to get working (just about) in Windows 10, so I am pleased about that.
I know you love your graphics programs and are particularly adept at creating good and complex designs!

Re: Windows 10

My brother used Micrografx and mourned its passing. I see that if searched for now, it looks like you'd get a download link but the program always ends up as not being there. Some link trails eventually end at Corel's 'Painter' and 'PaintShop Pro' pages.

Good that you got it working on Windows 10. Compatibility mode was it?
