No problems with Windows 10. * If you are using USB-serial adapters use FTDI based devices and turn off 'Serial Enumeration' in the advanced properties in Device Manger - stops the data being used by Windows as Mouse data. This is also a good idea for Win7 and earlier. * Use a short-cut to run the program e.g. with the device attached to COM7 I use:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Heather\heather.exe" /gb /7 This will also work happily from a command line.
