Thanks @mrgrundy sorry you are right I'm getting lazy in my old age.

A bit like windows 7 and that is likely the culprit here, Microsoft stopped supporting it with updates, bug fixes, and security updates.

It might be time to look at an upgrade. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. The TT team will be back tomorrow and it is well worth hearing what advice they can offer.

Hi mrgrundy, assuming that the Operating System is what's generating the error then Divsec is spot on Windows 7 hasn't been supported for a good while.
