OK, I feel silly for not recognizing this earlier: I'm so used to using the Total Commander file manager that I actually never use Windows Explorer.

Overnight, without my knowledge or consent W10 did an update (seems like a major one) and disabled CS saying it was not compatible. Now, I cannot re-install 4.3.0. When running the installation program an error pops up "CS requires Windows 7 or later". Any ideas how to solve this? Many tha...
