  • Best ArgTauRad for Windows 10?

    From Kurt Weiske@1:218/700 to All on Thu May 26 08:33:00 2022
    Is anyone running Argus, Taurus or Radius, or some other clone/project
    on Windows 10?

    I'm trying to run the radomega.zip package under Windows 10 32-bit and
    having it either crash or hang in the background without opening the
    app.

    I've tried setting compatibility to Windows 7 and XP SP3.

    I have been running Argus for years. I'm not sure now exactly where I
    got it, and the help file that helped me set it up. But, I've had no
    problem with it so long as I have the task scheduler set up to start it whenever the computer starts.

    I've not hear of the radomega.zip package. What is it supposed to do?

    I have Radius set up in my Win10 64bit laptop as a point.

    What version is that 'radomega.zip' ?

    I've not hear of the radomega.zip package. What is it supposed to do?

    It's the last release of Radius. Radius Omega.

    Hmm, for some reason it was running in win7 mode, but no problems in plain win10:

    OK -- that is why I never heard of it. I have Argus working and doing everything I want it to do, so have never given much thought to going to
    a next version.
