Sage advice: Avoid the Windows 10 Anniversary Update – it knackers our accounting app

[Batu69]

Try this workaround if you're frozen out

 

Accounting software developer Sage has warned that the Windows 10 Anniversary Edition may break your Sage 50 installation.

In an advisory circulated to customers on Tuesday, Sage says the latest version of Microsoft's operating system can create a conflict that leaves people unable to access their Sage accounts.

 

Essentially, users who have updated to the latest version of Windows 10 are knocked back with weird password errors when trying to log into Sage 50, a financial management package aimed at small businesses.

Too late - update was nightmare ... Screwed my sage accounts at the same time !! Actually hate windows 10

The problem, it seems, is due to an issue between Windows 10 Anniversary Edition and .NET 3.5 in which operating system updates end up disabling the framework. This preventing the accounting software from working properly. UK-based Sage has offered a workaround to the issue that involves re-activating .NET 3.5:

 

 

And if that doesn't work, maybe try hitting it?

Microsoft and Sage are reportedly working on a fix for the issue.

You're right I am sorry I forgot to mention that but you have access to all features or you want to use it in your company? I used this copy for training.

Sorry, I don't have right now, but I also have key for 2017 canadian version for student it's same features but for limited time I guess 14 months and I think it's more than enough if you will use app for training purpose like me.

 

[NorthEastKnight]

Like you I am using it for training purposes. Do you know whether any of these editions (US and Canadian) have the option to change the currency to UK pounds sterling and with VAT ?

I have a key for Sage 50 Pro 2016 (premium) installed in my computer, which I bought long time ago in 2016.

 

The problem is that the original disk is damaged. Calling Sage to get an additional one is not easy. In case something happen to my computer I need to installed in again using my backup.

 

That is why I am asking for a copy of Sage 50 Pro 2016, premium.
