Re: [Dx4win] Windows 11 Issue
Is the DX4WIN installed into Program Files folder? 73 DX de PY2YP - Cesar On 5/30/2023 7:40 AM, Rick Murphy wrote: Same for me. Start with the basics.

Hi Paul, Not sure if any help, but having just checked on my (up-to-date) W11 machine, DX4Win starts perfectly OK with me if I double-click the executable in File manager. (I normally start with a desktop Icon.) 73, Dave G3UEG On 29/05/2023 21:48, Paul van der Eijk wrote: Hi, I'm wondering if someone can provide some insight!
