Hi Mikeee-U
 
Welcome to the Community Forums.
 
v9 of WSA is the Windows 1o compliant version (current release is v9.0.1.36) and you can check if you copy is up to date by hovering your cursor over the Green 'W in a circle' icon in the Notification tray area, which should cause a notification bubble (it's an oblong really) to pop up with the details of the installed version.
 
If you version is not v9 then you should look to run a manual update; right click on the Green 'W in a circle' icon in the Notification tray area, select 'Check for updates' and if there is an update avaialbel it should proceed to be downloaded and installed.
 
Hope that helps?

Hi Daniel...thansk for reminding me.  
 
Key thing is to be on v9, whatever the minor version nos. are...right?  As being on v8 will cause issues with the Windows 10 upgrade due to lack of complience?

Baldrick,
Thanks for the info. I checked and I am running v9. I hope the Windows 10 transition goes smoothly.
