A couple of programs no longer work in Latest Win 10
Since I updated my Windows 10 installation to version 1703 (OS Build 15063.296), two programs which I used frequently no longer work.
JRuler Pro, from http://www.spadixbd.com/jruler/, doesn't appear when I click on its original exe file.
I downloaded again and tried a new installation of it. The installation procedure progresses normally.
The "Create a desktop icon" box is checked. On the last screen, I check "Launch Ruler". Once the screen closes I see the blue circle chasing its own tail for a second or two next to the cursor. Then no icon, no ruler.
I've tried installing again using the Troubleshoot Compatibility facility, but that doesn't help. I have sent a message to Spadix asking for help, but they haven't replied.
The other program is the PPM meter ME 12 from http://www.darkwooddesigns.co.uk/pc2/meters.html
After running the installer, a windows saying "List index out of bounds (0)" appears and gives an OK button. Clicking on that makes it disappear, the Basic meter is displayed, but it doesn't have its two needles.
I've tried installing as administrator and I've tried the Compatibility route too, neither of which have worked.
I also asked for help from Paul Marshall, the PPM meter designer, through two email addresses, neither of which has yet elicited a response.
Does anyone know how I can get these two programs to work?
