Can Eddie be fixed to be used with Win10?

[Pepe16 0]

I used Air without problems on win 7 and win8.   I have a new laptop with win10.   Using Eddie with this has been disastrous.  Connection dropping, reconnection attempts in endless loops, then nothing.

 

I am a computer novice.   I kept getting DNS not resolved, or something like that,  and I could not use my normal nternet connection.  Trouble shooting with Win said certain protocols were missing, and I had to reinstall windows,  as I didnt know how to fix it, and had nobody to ask.

 

I have logged a ticket, but thought I would post it here as novices like me should be aware that Eddie will cause problems with Windows 10.

 

Is it possible to use an earlier version of Eddie?    Or is there a definitive fix?

 

A "How To"  guide is essential for Win10 users,  as Eddie is not a working as a click and forget client.

Hello!

 

Eddie 2.10.3 is compatible with Windows 10. Any older version can have serious issues with Windows 10. Make sure to run version 2.10.3 (or higher, when available).

 

Kind regards

Is it possible to use an earlier version of Eddie?

 

As Staff wrote, don't use earlier Eddie versions with Win10.

 

Buuuuuuuut, sitting here I can smell you using TAP version 9.21, because this sounds veeeery familiar:

 

Connection dropping, reconnection attempts in endless loops, then nothing.
