Followed instructions per Garret W for Windows 10. I get "Error Code C" on proper size images written to proper size floppy formats but they work regardless!

Works with Windows 10 systems as long as a few steps are followed. Once the program is installed "right-click" the .exe and select (Properties). Inside properties select (Compatibility) and look at "Compatibility Mode". Select the "Check" on "Run this program in compatibility mode" and select "Windows 7". Next, run the .exe as an administrator, and now when "opening" the specific floppy the file pathing will take you to the correct folder e.i. (FLOPPY000). Hope this helps anyone else stuck with these issues.

It looks like this won't work on Windows 10 systems. It installs, and the format tool works, but the new 1.44 MB files won't open or accept programs. I read on CNC Zone that if you change your Windows 10 computer to use Windows 7 interface, IPCAS works normally. Hopefully this will be resolved in time by the software engineers.

Zane Adams, I remember once I was using it with windows10, the software tries to use some folders with system permission (read-only) as the temporary folder to show the usb files. I remember I found some settings in this software that I could change these directories, and the problem got solved.

Henry,
If you look at my comment I address this issue for Windows 10. Following those steps allowed me to open the new Floppys created instead of a random file directory window. Don't forget to run as an administrator for it to correctly work.
