This is good news. From what I gathered from the article the 32 bit apps will run in container. Not sure what that means yet. Time will tell. Tracy

I thought we were pretty much told there would be no new operating systems past Windows 10, so if your VFP app ran on Windows 10 now, then it was going to run forever. ????

Windows 10X is not Windows 10 like on your laptop.
It is a stripped down version intended for the Surface and other similar devices. So it's good news in the sense that full-fat Windows 10 will of course continue to run 32-bit native Windows executables like Visual Foxpro, because why wouldn't it, but the bonus from this is that 10x devices probably will as well.

So VFP apps will run on Microsoft Surface as well with Windows 10X?
