My PC recently did a Windows 10 upgrade and every single course I had downloaded from here disappeared. Not in Course directory or anyplace else. Very weird. I am currently downloading again. Anyone else experience this?
thanks

Re: Disappearing courses
Haven't experienced it but I'll be interested to see if other problems arise over the next week or so for people.
2 suspect threads now in 24 hours regarding a possible Windows 10 update.
May be coincidence but for anyone here, I would be putting updates on hold for a little while until we can make certain the latest Win 10 update isn't causing problems. The problem in the other thread, if it is caused by a Win 10 update, would be a major disaster.

Re: Disappearing courses
I heard something similar a long time ago, and I thought the courses ended up in a protected folder or area, in the Microsoft Store perhaps?

Re: Disappearing courses
Yes, that sounds about right. Links 2003 needs to be run as admin in Win 10 to prevent course issues.Danny D wrote: ↑February 24th, 2020, 4:57 amI heard something similar a long time ago, and I thought the courses ended up in a protected folder or area, in the Microsoft Store perhaps?

I think it's called the "VIRTUAL STORE"...Still Linksing wrote: ↑February 24th, 2020, 5:18 amYes, that sounds about right.

Re: Disappearing courses
If its VirtualStore, theyd still show up within Links though. (at least they used to, still do for me. Its likely I dont have that update installed)
