After Windows 10 update, OR v1.0 will not run.

I love it! Win10 a Turd sandwich!

Be sure to read up on how to prevent W10 from auto-updating, especially drivers which if allowed may cause MSTS and editors from operating. Be very careful tho' as Windows PowerShell will happily remove and or delete ANYTHING you tell it to!

can I tell it to delete Microsoft HQ.

But... how else would the next person to share the OP's experiences register a complaint about his lousy and interrupted windows 'service' experienced for a good 3 weeks?

Sorry about waking an old thread.
In my opinion use whatever OS is on the computer you purchased.
And never change that OS on that computer.
When you finally obtain a new computer that has win 10 on it,
then you have just updated your OS at precisely the correct time.

BTW, if you are now in the market for a new computer then yes
get one with Windows 10 (instead of searching for one with an older OS).
But until you buy that new system, stick with your old OS.
That's the one most of your present system hardware and software was designed to run on.

That's actually good advice - wait to upgrade Windows until you buy a new computer that comes with the newer version. I'd qualify it as: if you have what was a higher-end computer at the time you got it, and the Windows version you got it with is no more than 2 behind the Latest, you *can* upgrade if you want to, but unless you have other software or compatibility issues requiring the new version you'll probably be happier staying with the old one as long as it's supported at least for security purposes.

Oh, and btw, Open Rails and MSTS run fine in Windows 10 as well as 7 and 8, so again there's no NEED to upgrade unless you have other reasons, but nothing to stop you from upgrading if you want to.

Just for fun, here are some old jokes about what would happen ... If Microsoft built cars ...

* Every time they repainted the lines on the road, you'd have to buy a new car.
* Occasionally your car would die on the freeway for no reason, and you'd have to restart it. For some strange reason, you'd just accept this, restart and drive on.
* Occasionally, executing a maneuver would cause your car to stop and fail to restart and you'd have to reinstall the engine. For some strange reason, you'd just accept this too.
* The airbag system would say, "Are you sure?" before going off.
* If you were involved in a crash, you would have no idea what happened.

Officer Gannon: Sad, Joe, another blue screen of death .
Frdiay: Yeah Bill, these accidents wouldn't happen if Microsoft cleared that up.
Gannon: Clear is better, Joe :/
