Thank you Buttsie but I don't think that's the issue in my case. The software I tried to install was from DVDs. The installation would go thru but the software then wouldn't work under Windows 10.

My job has been frantic and stressful this month and I just don't have the time, patience or energy to keep fucking around with getting everything ported over from XP to W10. So the W10 machine is turned off and sitting on a corner of my desk while I do my usual stuff on the XP machine. For those (still few) things that I need or want to do that require W10 I will just turn it on for those. Over time, as I have the time and money, I will slowly build up the W10 machine. It took me years and a fair amount of money spent on software to get my XP machine to where it is and doing what I want how I want. I was just unrealistically hoping that I would be able to port at least most of my XP setup directly to W10 but MS has nerfed the backwards compatibility of W10. Deliberately from what I understand.
