The issue is that the software relies on calls/libraries not present in Win10. The compatibility settings you refer to are to allow older software to run on newer OS, the original complaint is that new software doesn't run on older OS, the opposite situation to what the compatibility setting address.

Does it not work if you set the compatibility to windows 7? Right click the program, select properties, compatibility and set run in compatibility with.......

Not sure that would work but just a thought.

Dean, can I suggest you try running Ubuntu within Win 7 under Oracle VirtualBox. Both are free to download and use.

Tony, you are correct although just because Microsoft doesn't support Windows 7 doesn't mean a program can't still work on Windows 7. there are a lot of hams I know that are still using Win-7 like I am and it runs very stable for all my applications except Chirp-Next. So now I have to use the older version of Chirp and am forced to get a newer machine with Windows 10 or 11 just to use the Next version of Chirp. Then I have to reinstall all the other programs onto the new machine. We hams are cheap and/or live on a fixed income. Look at the majority of hams. I do like the fact there is a new version of Chirp, I just wish I could use it on my machine. i was even tempted to send in a donation until I found out I couldn't use it. Like I said, I do wish it would have been more apparent that the new next version of Chirp will not run on Win-7.

Microsoft no longer support Windows 7.
