>>VFP will not work in all flavors of Windows 10. Raspberry Pi comes to mind as does Windows Phone.

Need to make the point that Windows for Raspberry Pi is not a Windows OS as that term has been understood until now. Windows 10 now means that an NT kernel is shared, but the IoT version aimed at Raspberry Pi is intended to perform some sort of function that then communicates with a more fully implemented Windows machine. You program and access the Raspberry Pi via the master Windows 10 PC, sort of like Remote Desktop. So we're no longer talking about a copy of Windows that you install on a machine to run Office and Email. I agree you wouldn't expect VFP to work on an IoT setup, but that wasn't how I understood the question.

Looking at it another way: if the answer was "no, we can't get VFP working on Windows 10" then people can benefit from that experience without doing it themselves. IOW it's not an unreasonable question, is it? Even if there are prior threads, Windows 10 is at preview stage subject to tweaks and changes converting yesterday's truth to tomorrow's idiocy, so can we not ask again? As an example- is their a prior thread talking about Samba 2? People may not expect Samba 2 to be deprecated in Windows 10 but if a Linux server is part of your setup, this can be very important information and it can change day by day- e.g. would not be surprised if MS puts it back when more people find out.

/Edit/ - just hit the Email button beside Update which apparently Emails this to you. Apologies.
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us.

-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
