Gosh W7!!! Charlie might be worth going for W10 14393 it was a big sound improvement over any Win OS prior with subsequent Xx updates. I would do a clean install with W10 14393 and new 2.11 program. Better to spend time getting this to work, end sound will be way better. This is the last big effort from Peter its worth trying it.

Thanks Robert. Where can I get 14393?
Depending on the size of the effort I may be willing to go through pain of installing 14393 and starting all over. One reason I hesitate changing the OS, one big reason, is that my system is sounding better than ever right now. I'm using two USB decr*pifiers in series, the latest Intona Industrial first, then the latest ISO REGEN from Uptone Audio powered by a big battery. That's what it takes to dejitterify my PC almost completely. XXHighEnd Does the rest. I'm using an NVidia Quadro K620 to provide CUDA offload (the devil in this forum) for HQPlayer's latest advanced filters and it sounds too good to change anything at all, except a new XXHighEnd of course.
That said, I still like to use XX about half of the time. I like the interface much better; and this is ironic because at first, maybe eight years ago, I only used XX for its sound and I didn't like the interface. Now I like the interface more than any other player, except for the lack of a working pause button. ...oh, and the lack of 705K playback ...oh, and mouse selection sequences ....etc. Some of these are addressed in 2.11.
Right now I can upgrade for free directly from microsoft and 12 weeks ago I made a USB key for that purpose. But that is fraught with problems starting with it will be the wrong version of Win10 and MS automatically applies the latest updates if I use that method. It's a "no go" and it's not 14393 without any updates.
I have to believe there are many others that are also running Win 7. I can't be the only one. Therefore, I assume for now that these problems have to be resolved, assuming there are problems to begin with. There may not be. I might have made an error in the installation process; and the first candidate for that is that I didn't exit MinOS before installing (something I've done with success before, I believe).
Also, I have to believe that the OS has nothing to do with some of these errors. E.g., what does the OS have to do with XX reading and writing XXSS files? ..what does it have to do with an invalid XX.AHK?
Thanks
