Quick AE question

Quick question, will AE work with Windows 10? My 10" computer that I use for AE went belly up and I had Windows 7 on it and I'm looking at another 10" tablet/laptop with USB ports that someone bought brand new still in the box for $100.
I have the older style AE Pro line cord with the seperate donggle.

Windows 10 has backwards comparability modes AE needs it. So in theory, yes it should work, and I don't believe I have had any issues with any of the programs I use. I have yet to try AE on a Windows 10 machine though.....

It works fine on 10.....since Win 10 came out anyway. and that's since AE V13, all the way to 15.

Can verify that AE works with Win 10. IIRC I have AE v13.x and the software works just fine.

In full disclosure, am having issues with some communications (specifically all live values like ECT, TFT, . . .) and suspect it is my laptop. Other than not reading live values, AE seems like it works normally as I can read historic codes and do things like bump the RPM and turn-off injectors.

They are offering the new Wifi capable VCI adapter that will be able to run on iOS next year for $100 for you guys with the older version. Just throwing it out there. If you are not interested disreguard this message

I am planning on doing the wifi adapter so I can run the software on my iPad. Been waiting for that for a couple years now. I can send you the email if you wait. Just pm me your email.
