in Blackbaud Raiser's Edge NXT®: General Discussion
I would like to ask other Raiser's Edge users who are still on version 7.93 if any of them have migrated to Windows 10 and experienced any issues or problems running reports.  We are planning to upgrade to 7.95 in the fall, but our IT department wants to update all of our PC's to Windows 10 now.  Blackbaud says that RE 7.93 and Windows 10 are not compatible.  Has any one had issues with running queries, export and reports?  Also has it caused any problems with running Crystal reports or doing mail merges?


Any information you could provide to me would be greatly appreciated. 

Thanks!

    We are still on 7.93 and just upgraded to Windows 10 last week. So far, I've had no problems with queries or reports. Since it's only been a week, it might be early for me to make that call, but so far, so good.

    It may be a bit late to reply to this but we are on 7.93 still and I just did my first install to a windows 10 surface pro. Everything worked fine except the reports. Our reports are on a shared drive and while the machine is mapped to the shared driv,e when I try and point the reports to the location of the shared drive and the necessary files, none of the drives come up in the location window. To be honest, I'm not sure if this is an RE problem or an issue with the surface pro but I just thought I would mention it.
