I have tried it and it failled to install.

I could install under windows 8, then upgrade to 10 and it worked, but not do a normal install on 10

I suspect getting V22 for windows 10 is the best route. :-(

I can do you a discount on an upgrade or Sagecover extra :-) !

Hi,

I inadvertently agreed to the installation of Windows 10, without realising the major problems it would cause with the running of Sage 50 2015 V21. Now, I cannot run any reports nor issue any invoices; nor, I think, anything that requires data to be retrieved or exported? The error message box that comes up says:

"SBDDesktop.exe has stopped workingA problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is avalable."

When I initially login to Sage50 or attempt to run a report, another error message comes up which says "Report Designer Problem. Unable to register data source."

Do you have any recommendations as to what my best course of action should be? I believe I am still under a contract for Sage50 support but have not yet contacted them to check. I thought I would start here first.

Many thanks

Nathalie Martin

You should be fine using V2015 with windows 10.

An uninstall and reinstall should fix things.
