Microsoft is trying to persuade us to upgrade to the new Windows 10 operating system. I use Windows 7 which is fine for me at present.

I use the windows version of BBO as I much prefer it to the Web version.

It works fine with Windows 7. Does it work with Windows 8 (which I don't have) and will it work with Windows 10 please?

it works in Windows 8. Otherwise pass. But I would expect it to.

Personally I would suggest waiting for at least 3 months before upgrading, if such is your inclination. They are offering a free upgrade for a year. It would not surprise me if one year turns into forever, but at least for now there is no rush.

No it doesn't work with Windows 10. The bidding box obscures my hand totally..... Devastating : (
