>Hi,

My clients are currently using Win 7 but would also like to know if any issues on WIN 10 for the future. They are currently on VFP6 but I will be moving them to VFP9 shortly.

Hi William:

Disabling SMB2/3 is an old and unoptimal solution, because doing this can affect too much the performance of the servers. The latest news about this is disabling only FileInfoCacheLifetime, because the problem is the caching that Windows do, that interfere with the table locking.

Here you can read more about it from Microsoft:

Amd here you can have some more related configs from Alaska:
