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?

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

    To resolve the error, try the following registry modifying:

    1. Open Registry Editor (RegEdit).
    2. Navigate to the following registry key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Internet Explorer
    3. In the right pane, look for Version registry value.
    4. Modify the value date to 9.11.10240.0.

    Ok I must be really stupid, I have the Registry that says WOW6432Node but I am not seeing the \Microsoft\Internet Explorer part. Also I am not seeing Version, I just see "Name, Type, Data"  in the right hand pane. I have never done this but I am sure I can, if I can figure out what I am suppose to modify.

    Thanks in Advance

    I really hope Microsoft are monitoring this, and other threads, in the forums. I for one would be happy to pay for a permanent solution, and cannot see why Microsoft, if they're not interested in the software don't sell off the source code (or donate it to the Open Source Communuty) to someone else who would maintain it on a commercial basis.

    If there was something else, I would have moved to it years ago. I'm personally willing to put up with some small inconveniences to stick with Money.

    Though I'm hoping that MS sees that this is something they can easily put a 'shim' into Windows to fix. I think if they had to do something to Money itself, we'd be out of luck entirely.

    Agreed...! Quicken doesn't even begin to compare with Money for features or versatility and, being a long-time user for over 20 years, I'm happy that there is a way to keep on using Money in Windows 10...!
