Well, it took about three minutes to download and install.

I then opened a FLAC file from a network NAS unit which had caused 
issues loading into other software. Audacity opened it under Win10Pro 
and it found my RME Fireface UFX's main output channels and played fine.

It took about as long to read and write this email as to download it and 
install.

It's been playing for 3 minutes.

There are lots of rumours out there...some of them are even true. This 
one, apparently not so much (at least for me).

Here is a link to the screenshot.

And, I still need an XP machine to run one or two programs, and I was 
cleaning it up in the background via Remote desktop.

The only one I use with any frequency of that is the utility for my 
CD/DVD printer which would not run under Win7.

Cheers,

Richard
