I had this happen a year ago when they decided my desktop was no longer good enough! No, they had to MOVE it to their cloud based ONEDRIVE!! But that would be too simple, so they only moved SOME OF IT!! ............

I am also a big fan of windows 10... and the cloud-based ONEDRIVE! It's amazing what American ingenuity can create when they don't worry about customer expectations.... and concentrate only on the product profits.

ya on win 10 Dave.
I am about to uninstall ahp and reinstall. I have deleted all the virtualstore stuff, corrected permissions on program files folder and subfolders so again I can write into the active homoe directory without complaint needing admin permissions, I even reran LifeJacket to re-register the plugins.
Nothing helped.
I give up for today. I will tomorrow uninstall AHP and re-install it and LifeJacket it again to see.
I thought computers were here to save us time; instead they seem to ADD 3 orders of magnitude to the time required to do simple stuff!
sheesh!

I am running ahp on two computers, both win 10 64 bit machines....
SO: i gave up, used revo uninstaller to uninstall and get rid of left overs in register... reinstalled, applied AHP Lifejacket - BIG THANK YOU AGAIN TUICEMAN!!!!! - and all is back running. On ahp program start it again says registered to my plugins (I had lost that and did not remember) and smart macros show up just fine again!
I HAVE NO CLUE WHY THIS ALL CRASHED AND BURNED. But thank God for the easing of the reinstall pain from Tuiceman! Before his Lifejacket, it would take we 45 minutes to copy and paste each rgistration into each plugin after each reinstall on new computers over the years!
Thanks all for helping me return to X10 worksville!
Tuicemen:
Glade to see your back up and running :)%
