Hi Dave. There is an issue with the old program WiSP running under WIN10. I had no issues until I switched the sat computer here over from WIN7. For various unknown reasons, Windows updates, shutting computer down without closing WiSP first causes some kind of registry corruption. Only way I found so far how to get it running again is to do a regedit, clearing out all WiSP Falconsat-3 registry entries, and then re install the sats into WiSP. Just a bit tedious. There has to be an easier way. Someone volunteered to rewrite/recompile WiSP under a newer version of Windows but I understand that the source code isn't available to do so.

Jeff,
Try right clicking and select Run as Administrator to see if that changes it.

I rebooted my WIN10 computer after a good Falconsat3 pass this morning. When I brought WiSP back up I'm again having the disappearing sat config information issue. Of course I blew the pass as I don't have enough time to enter the data before the end of the pass. Does anyone have any kind of fix for this behavior?
