KE6D K2 Software

Steve & Anne Ray
I have been using Dan's excellent K2S software for my K2 with Windows 7 for
a number of years.   I recently upgraded my computer to Windows 10.  Now
when I load K2S I get the following error message. "Unable to read software
logging model".   The program comes up, but does not respond to any
commands.  I know my serial interface is good as it works with my K2 on the
SKCC and NAQCC logging programs.   Does anyone have a solution, so I can use
Dan's excellent program.

 

73,

Steve K4JPN

OK ... you're talking about the K2"S" software ... kinda confusing there
for a sec.

The program has not been updated (as far as I can tell) since 2003.   
Have you tried running the program under COMPATIBILITY MODE?   Right
click on the software's icon to bring up the menu and select
PROPERTIES.   Then select the Compatibility  tab.   On that tab you'll
find a button for the "Run Compatibility Troubleshooter".    It should
fix the issue.  If after it runs, you still have the problem, try
setting the compatibility manually, by clicking on the box in that tab,
and selecting Windows 7.

Hope this helps,

Neil, KN3ILZ

Thank you for the fix for my K2S software, the Run Compatibility
Troubleshooter fix did not work, however selecting the compatibility
manually solved the problem.   I restarted the computer after setting the
compatibility to Windows 7 for this program and the KE6D, K2S software
worked like a champ.
