Does anyone know a good alternative to MS Money Plus for WIn10?
I just upgraded from WIn7 to Win10. The upgrade went very well. However, there is one issue I am concerned about. Microsoft Money Plus Sunset edition is no longer working :-( Others have posted fixes to include a registry hack. I really don't want to go that route. But I do want a functioning checkbook program on my PC.
My guess is that I could create a virtual machine and then reinstall my WIn7 inside that VM. I doubt MS really approves of that; however, I am not paying for another OS on a single computer particularly as a result of an MS program that should continue to be supported as it has for all previous OS. And I would presume I wouldn't have a hard time keeping the Virtual Machine WIn7 activated using my retail version of 7 (that was just upgraded to 10).
Aside from doing that.....and assuming MS refuses to address this issue, does anyone have any suggestions regarding a highly regarded checking program? I don't know if it's changed, but I wasn't exactly so impressed when I used Quicken (briefly) a few years ago and went right back to my Microsoft Money Plus (Sunset edition).
I always thought it was such a shame with MS discontinued making new versions of Microsoft Money Plus. This is a great little program that is so convenient and easy to use....and unmatched by any other software!!! Why on earth did MS discontinue it in the first place? Seemed like there was no logical reason for it! But that Microsoft Money Plus Sunset version (17) has continued to work flawlessly in WIn7. And as I understand, it also works in Win8.1.
Any suggestions, help from others? Thanks.
