Kenwood software and Windows 10

[KG4EMJ]

I have a Kenwood NX-220 that I am using as a scanner to monitor my local Fire/EMS channels. I successfully programmed it using the KPG-141DN software and cable that I purchased from eBay and installed on my Windows 8.1 laptop. (BIG thanks to the folks on the forum here who endured my questions and helped me track down the proper things to purchase to make this happen).

Yesterday, my laptop prompted me to download the free Windows 10 upgrade. I am very tempted to do it and give Windows 10 a try. However, I can't find any information about whether the Kenwood programming software is compatible with Windows 10 or not. Can anybody offer advice? I do NOT want to lose the ability to make changes with my NX-200 radio.

Thanks!

So I had KPG-111D software for my NX200 installed on a Win 8.1 tablet, and have just upgraded to Win 10. It's all working ok. I'd expect the same result for KPG-141DN and your NX220, but without testing it myself, can't be 100% sure.

works fine, my laptop updated on Wednesday to 10.
Had to scratch my head cause I like being able to hit
the windows key and type KPG-*** and hit enter....

Not pissed, but still working out my own bugs.

With my NX-5000 and other NX radios, NO ISSUES TO REPORT.

The general rule of thumb for any program, not just radio stuff, is if it works on 8.1, it will work on 10.
