Hi Simon
I am back from a work trip, and I played around with a few settings. I can now get Money Sunset Edition to run in the Windows 10 Technical Preview Build 9879.
I changed the Compatibility settings:
Good luck!
Nick
Will Money Sunset work on Windows 10? or when will Money be relaunched?

As a long term user of Microsoft Money and now Money Sunset Delux I am keen to learn if the programme will still work on the imending Windows 10? I would be happy to resume paying for Money, as for me, this is the 'Killer App' which keeps me on the Windows platform. Does anyone esle out there still use Money? How can we get this fantastic Personnal Finance software continued? or, Have you found a realisticly alternative application?

2015-08-15T16:23:56+00:00 there are two separate issues -fixing the registry entry and updating the dll file as shown above from ameridan's blog site. The first issue allows Money Plus Sunset Deluxe to work with Win10 and the dll file replacement allows Money to import ofx files under Win10. Thanks a million to all of you and saving me from a heart attack. Microsoft managed to abandon the best program they had!

- For future reference, compatibility can always be accessed by right-clicking on a program's icon to bring up the menu > Properties.
- The Level 2 tech support person is 100% wrong. The issue is literally just that Money can't handle a 5-digit number in the IE version string.

2015-08-15T13:59:35+00:00 How did you change the settings? I cannot get Money to even load on Windows 10! I assume that in order to get to the compatibility settings Sunset has to be running? After loading Windows 10, I then tried to open Money and I got the error "Money will not load, need Explorer 6". What Explorer 6 has to do with it I do not know as I was using Explorer 11. Windows 10 I understand does not use Explorer but uses Edge.
As I mentioned in another post, I talked with Tech support for 2 hours and He passed me up to level 2 support. Level 2 told me that Money will not work with Edge so I should stay on Windows 7?

2015-08-15T13:32:46+00:00 I talked with Microsoft tech support August 14. After loading Windows 10 Money would not work, it kept saying that it needed Explorer 6? After 2 hours of previous troubleshooting with Microsoft, their second contact told me to stay with Windows 7. As you probably know, their tech support is in India or someplace like that so I had a hard time understanding Him but He finished by telling me that the problem is that Windows 10 does not use Explorer!
He said that He would pass the problem "up the chain".
I asked Him "why in the hell would Microsoft issue a update that their own software will not work on".
