Like a lot of you, I updated to Windows 10, which I like fairly well, but I have also found some problems involving some of my older software. I have written some of my own programs using PowerBasic and found these programs would not run on Windows 10. I also use MS Office 2003 and found at least one instance where it runs very slowly. A couple days ago I found at least one solution. Windows 10 automatically installs and runs a program called "Game Bar". Each time I tried running one of my PowerBasic programs, a small blue window would open up with information about "Game Bar". My programs would open up behind the small blue window but would not run properly. I google "Game Bar" and found it is part of a "XBox" provision to play those games on the Windows 10 computer. I then found if I entered "XBox" in the start menu I found an option to uninstall X"Box", which I did and now my PowerBasic programs work find. Not sure about MS Office yet. Hope this knowledge may hel p some of you. -- <[email protected]>
