I would say the computer acting as Server should at least be PRO
to handle better security for networking.<br>
<br>
The menu script problem might be because you did not setup a PFTMP
folder where you have access to write. Filepro will drop menu
scripts to a .bat file before execution and must be able to write
them down to do that.<br>
<br>
The problem with the pathing would indicate the system does not
know where to find filepro stuff. I have seen systems with
limited environment space, so it could not load the variables. It
used to happen on Server 2002 as I recall or something that
vintage and we would add variables and then reset them to add
filepro variables. It is not reasonable on a Win10 machine to
have that limitation but I don't know what he might have installed
and it is a consideration.<br>
<br>
Start at a command prompt and set variables one at a time and
check if they are held. <br>
<br>
I just upgraded my computer to Win10Pro and had to tweak a few
things but printers worked, variables worked, filepro works. I
used PCMover Professional and connected Win7Ultimate computer to
Win10Pro computer - It analyzed my old computer and moved
installed software, printers, etc. It told me what it could not
move and gave me options to leave things behind and such. I was
very impressed. It took weeks in the past to setup a new
workstation after one of these changes. This one took 12 hours
and most of my stuff was ready to go. I have had to handle some
things because of licensing but I did not lose any work time
overall.<br>
<br>
A small note if you are thinking of this kind of thing.<br>

<pre class="moz-quote-pre" wrap="">Pfcmark was set to 30 back when the Y2K version was issued. I had already accounted for the century. Chang back in 1992. My programming mimicked what pfcmark does.
The issue arose after the November up date to Windows 10. Home seems to be the problem not filePro. The programs run and print properly on my system. Win 19 Enterprise and server 2012 R2.

I have a client who purchased 3 new computers with Windows 10 Home and migrated filePro to the one machine which is acting as a server(Not a lot of access). They are on filePro 5.0. and had no problems with the application for almost one year. In December they started to have issues with filePro. Menu scripts didn't work and some reports based on dares did not run properly and the Owner had problems printing reports to his local printer.
When I checked his system, I found that the print output got to the print spooler for this local printer but took over 10 minutes for it to start to print. When an output printed, it did print properly based on the print codes sent.
As anyone else seen problems with Windows 10 Home when networked?
I have recommended he upgrade to Windows 10 Pro or Enterprise to eliminate any network issues which may have been closed with an Update of Windows 10 HOME.
After that I would like him to upgrade to filePro 6.0 so he can output PDF file directly.
