@lassoan I wonder if this the same/similar issue I have been encountering our old Sandy Bridge (Xeon E5-1620) computers that were recently updated to Windows 10 from Windows 7? Slicer preview versions used to work fine, and now getting and error message

I managed to install other new programs (e.g., TurboVNC etc) that all seem to work. It will be hard to chase, so I will just have them do a fresh reinstall of OS.

Is there a work around? We really don’t toss them out as they are fairly usable computers.
