Get this ... am So surprised to get all these dinosaur "apps" (what they call software now?) working on Win8.1 and now on
Win11 laptop, forced to buy in order to continue to use H&B Block Tax software again:
Have the disk, even made an ISO, changed compatibilities all .exe on CD, those copied to HDD
checked all explorer files & hideouts, even registry.
STRIKE OUT!
There is NO timesheet software out there that spoils one as much, have tried them all and own one or two contenders, only to think it best to continue with Timesheet Pro on an old XP laptop!?!?!? What a pickle.
SAP will sell Win11 upgrade for $350
but am screwed (no refunds & NO direct communications ... their "Chat" has only the powers of a butler)
if this version doesn't connect with Timesheet Pro, whose support/company doesn't respond (out of biz assumed).
I read everywhere that THIS TIME, MS Win11 promises to be compatitble with even dinosaur software that worked on some of the earliest Windows versions.
What gives?
What hiding place have we not skulked yet to get CR to work on Win11?
Sample error messages:
This version software cannot be loaded - check with vendor for proper version ....
CR print engine ... not found ... not loaded/started ....
Must install CR first ....
