Good to know - thanks. Personally, I don't have W10, and have no plans to get W10. I obviously can't speak as to Tobin's plans.

Patches gladly accepted. :-)

Until Windows 10 is released or I get access to it, users are kind of on their own. As 99% of my work is Linux based, I usually have little to no compelling reason to jump on the latest Windows release, except to support this program.

That said, I will try to get an advanced preview copy through work in the next few weeks. No guarantees.

Ok, I am currently running Windows10_TechnicalPreview_x64_EN-US_9926 64bit in a VM, and I see no issues running the program, other than it won't launch from the installer (elevated permissions). Runs from the Start menue just fine.

I don't have any spare systems to sacrifice to the M$ gods, so thorough testing is of course limted.

Hi Thanks for a great tool.

 I got the error 1117 I/O error when i tried to use the tool. I Checked this site and other sites, tried everything. Last ,when i ran SDFormatter to format the SD Card, then it gave a message that told me that i had the lock switch that controls the write feature on the SD Adapter "ON".

  Turning it "OFF" and then using the tool works for me in Windows 10. Sometime we over look a small thing search everywhere for a solution. Hope this helps someone who has similar error.

Thanks,
krishna
