After installing Windows 10  64bit my FSX stopped working I cannot even reinstall it . I am getting a variety of error messages depending what I am trying to do. The big problem is that there is very little information relating to error messages on Windows 10. I have tried following various instructions on how to fix the error messages without any success. I am very disappointed that there seems to be a compatibility problem between two Microsoft products, perhaps eventually there will be an upgrade. I have also tried to install FSX on my 32 bit drive with Windows 10 no success here either and I have dumped Windows 10 and reinstated windows 7 on the 64 bit system, FSX returns an error message when trying to reinstall on the win 7 system. So I suppose my next step will be to do a total clean up of the drive and try again but not today I have had enough. Any one else having problems??

I've not tried W10 yet, so can't really be of much help, I would be guessing.

I would ask the guys in the Avsim W10 forum, as well as here. Some very experienced guys there.
