[OPLINTECH] Windows 10?

[Fred Miller Jr]

Phil,
We use Drive Vaccine on some of our Windows 10 public computer at our branches and it works fine. You can get 5 licenses through TechSoup for $25. They also offer more licenses if you need them.

I've upgraded all of the staff computers to Windows 10.  Everything is working fine now.  When they released the 1511 update last Fall, the receipt printers quit working.  Apparently, parallel connections are no longer supported.  Since upgrading (replacing interface boards) or replacing the receipt printers, I've had no issues.  I'm a bit anxious with the upcoming Anniversary Update, due out in August.

As far as the public computers, I am staying with Windows 7 for now, but they've all been activated with Windows 10.  I made an image of each, upgraded them to 10, and restored the Windows 7 image.  That bought me some time so that I can upgrade to 10 whenever I want...after the July 29th deadline and I still get the free upgrades.

I'm also curious what 'freezing software' is working correctly with Windows 10 without going into the dreaded reboot loops.

Has anyone else started using Windows 10? We're using it successfully on a couple of staff computers, and once we install the latest version of Cassie we're going to see if it works with our public PC setup (notably Deepfreze).
