PSP X-3 and Windows 10

[Robert Boers]

Hi All,

 

I am considering to go for Windows 10 from W-7. I use PSP X-3 with geat satisfaction, and now I wonder, will I be able to use X-3 in the same way with Windows 10 as in W7? Anybody with hands-0n experience?

 

Thanks

PSP X3 is not OFFICIALLY compatible with Windows 10. Some people have it installed and working without issues, others can't get it to work anymore. I don't have first-hand experience because I still use W7. It seems to be a split between those who can and those who can't get it to work. Also, I heard that if it works, any Windows update might break it. Is that the only version you have? You might want to set your mind to possibly upgrade to a newer version *IF* the combination is not working, which you likely won't know until you try it.

 

Good luck!

Ok, thanks. I read somewhere, that in W10 you could activitate a semi W7 mode, so that older programs will work in that mode. Any info on that?

I have also heard that on various forums, and it does seem to work for some, but not for everybody.

 

As I said, that version is not "officially" compatible with W10, so there is no guarantee. If you are ok with having a plan B to upgrade to another version, then, it might be worth trying.

OK, thanks for the info.

I have X2 working with W10 on my laptop with no issues. Still love it as it is one program that never let me down.

I finally had to renew my pc, and the new one had W11 (version 23H2). I tried with beating hart to install my faithfull X-3 on, and  lo and behold,  it worked! I did need to install the 5 patches for it to work properly, but the thumb nails still need to be installed, but I forgot, where I stored them. So I 'll search the blogs for the download. But I do have the old PSP X-3!.
