lHi,

When I install version 4 of Winpoint on my 64 bit Windows 10 machine I end up with all the buttons to the left greyed out. The software sometimes is locked to the point I have to reboot.

Polling is very limited, like 3 lines.

I have uninstalled and upraded, downgraded and reinstalled countless times, to no avail.

Thoughts?

Why does this happen to me?

Do you still have admin rights to install software or did you do so through adminstrator account etc.

V10 and v11 is more stringent on installer users depending on your installed release, beta, early tester etc.

Actually for WP its version fourhundredsomething (for historical reasons), as I do no longer do major releases (as in the 90s), but publish based on the internal version number, which (for consistency) remains at the fast counting scheme I invented for it in the 90s.

As usualy: Funny antivirus software? I once had a strange issue, where certain software stopped working on my machine because Acronis True Image (wrongly) classified its behavior as ransomware ... (not that I think WP would fit that pattern).
