Does this work for Windows 10?

ContainerTed · October 6, 2016

Yes, Imp. I have Windows 10 on one of our laptops and it has performed flawlessly. I use it to do "from the garden" updates to my databases.

Ok, my new computer is w 10 and I did try to download the program but couldn't figure out how to open it in this new 10.

Big change from XP!!

I know what you mean! I've been using 10 for a couple of months now and I'm still not used to it.

only a week or so here. Huge change, but will keep going at it and get it figured out some more.

I can remember getting the first Windows- no number, LOL!!

Feeling dumb, LOL. Cannot get this to work on windows 10. It downloads, but doesn't open or become a program that is able to be used?

I really didn't set it up for Windows 10, but a few people have told me they got it to work on Windows 10. The primary thing is to let the program install itself. You must allow it to create directories where it is programmed to do so. If not, it will not know where its database file is located. When the download is complete, click on "RUN" and that should do it. It is a 32 bit based program, so if your windows 10 install declined the 32 bit portion, it will not run.

I had forgotten all about this until Imp posted earlier, kicking the thread. I now have a laptop and decided to download the Seedbox and check it out again.

On my Windows 10 laptop, it downloaded but did not give me an option to Run it.

I had to go to my download folder, right click the Seedbox zipped folder, and extract all the files. Then I had to go into the Seedbox folder it created, find the Setup file, and double click that to actually start the install.

It seems to be running fine, but I haven't had a chance to play with it yet.

I can download it, and I think it does unzip, but that is as far as I can get it to go, LOL.

No option to run it, same as Fther'sDaughter above.

If it unzipped, open the folder where it dumped all the files and look for the file called Setup. If you find it, double click on it and it should launch the installation.

Thank you so much! It seems to have loaded and all that, will start trying to enter seeds tonight or tomorrow.

Wow, thanks!
