Is anyone running Windows 11 and experiencing any erratic behavior with Softplan?  Softplan will just suddenly shut down on me.  No rhyme or reason why.  I might press a shortcut key or click on a command on the tool bar and all of a sudden softplan is just gone.  I mean it is instantaneous!  This happens 5 or 6 times a day.  I have always been able to recover my drawings but it is still pretty annoying.

I've been running Windows 11 since the day it was released without any problems with SoftPlan or any other program.

I've come to the conclusion that I had something corrupted in softplan.  It was crashing so much I started working on my laptop which is still Windows 10.  Then it started crashing there too.  I completely blew away softplan on my desktop and did a clean install.  I have been working for a few hours now with no issues.

I've heard this statement on EVERY windows upgrade since 3.1

 

There is ALWAYS a driver issue or a program I have installed that's not supported.  I'll wait for most bugs to be worked out and the supporting drivers & execution files to be updated....at least a year before I'll consider upgrade.

 

W10 is performing flawlessly why risk anything?

I just switched to Windows 10 because of a new computer. Do not like it at all. Windows 11? Nah

I've been using Windows since Windows 3.1 ... In my opinion, Windows 10 is the best of the lot.

So a year later and what's the verdict on Windows 11? Just had a big update so I was wondering? I'm still running Win 10

Windows 11 works just fine. I have not had any issues with any programs.
