    utility apps not working after upgrade from windows 7 (no error)


    I have some utility apps, that were developed in windows 7 environment. Some do not work in windows 10 environment. there are no error message, installs fine, but nothing happens when running the app.

    These apps were made using visual studio, and some are using office access user interface.

    Is there something basic i can look into with this compatibility issue?
    Any help on resolving these issues would be appreciated -thanks

    Hi there and welcome.

    Did these programs use an installer?

    Hi
    this issue was resolved
    Turns out it was simply a network mapping issue. So not actually a compatibility problem.
    Thanks anyway!
