[Framers] Windows 10 "hijacked" my computer

[Penelope Perkins]

Ken,

I can't say for sure in your situation, but when IT upgraded us from Win 8.1 to Win 10, we did not have to reactivate any Adobe products. (Ironically, we did have to reactivate Microsoft Office, even though the version of that had not changed.) 

We have TCS 5 -- so FM 12, Acro XI, etc. Everything (thankfully!) ran just fine, even though it is not officially supported on Win 10. There were some posts on the Adobe Forums about the Win 10 upgrade objecting to FM 12, but other reports that the upgrade went smoothly. So it may depend on some subtle differences in system configuration. 

Regards,
Penelope

Subject: [Framers] Windows 10 "hijacked" my computer

Well, Gang, Windows 10 wants me and it wants me NOW!

Some months ago, I signed up for the free offer of Windows 10 for installation at MY convenience.

Early this morning when I check the home desktop, Windows 10 had apparently self-installed overnight. (I usually leave the platform on all night.)

I rebooted and when prompted with the Windows 10 EULA (end-user license agreement), I declined. Windows 10 said it would then  "reinstall my Windows 7".

I didn't have time to wait for it so I let it do its own thing and left for my office; I'll see how things played out when I get home tonight.

Two questions:
1. Regarding FrameMaker (I'm running FM10), am I facing any operational or other problems or must I reinstall it? If so, that might be a problem because I didn't "de-activate" my second license. (One is on the desktop and one is on a laptop.)

2. Am I facing any general problems with Windows 10?

I hate when this happens.
