installing a program that works in Windows 10 Version 21H1 onto another computer running Window
I am trying to install a program that works in Windows 10 Version 21H1 onto another computer running Windows 10 Version 20H2 but after the attempted install, I only get a momentary flash on the scree...
No, the program doesn't require a license key. I don't know how to do a fresh install of the 21H1 Version. I don't know if Microsoft is going to ever fix the issue. The new Windows 10 version 20H2 has seemed to mess up several programs that I've been able to use in the past. I don't even want to think about upgrading to Windows 11. Every time I've updated I wound up with more problems than it helped.
Hi raggmopp
I would like if you can to backup all of your files first then kindly download the ISO File from this archived website.

After you complete the setup, you press the "Keep Nothing" option then it will restart your computer and reinstall Windows 10.
After that you may use this guide to stay on 21H1 so Windows doesn't upgrade you to the broken veriosn.

I hope this helps, also a lot of programs will start to break sooner or later as Windows gets modern. So, the best way is to stay on this old version also noting that this version will soon be out of support.
Thank you 🙂

- Wow, that's a lot of stuff going on with it. It would be best to sell the computer for parts on eBay, then get a new computer 🙂
Have a wonderful day!
Shawn - I agree a new computer won't solve the issue of not being install Micrografx, that isn't the reason I've been returning the computer to HP repair, everything from a large dark area on the screen to other mechanical issues. This computer has just been a nightmare, bought it in July and had issues constantly since then, did a factory reset before I started sending it back to them. If Micrografx would install on my friend's identical computer, I would just say it's a problem with this computer, but it appears to be the Windows 10 version issue on both of them.
Yes, I can install Micrografx on their computer, but I had taken an image off my other older computer with the old Windows 10 version and loaded it onto the HP loaner, so I'm running their computer with the old Windows 10 version. I did that because I didn't want to have to set their computer up from scratch so I could use it. I've had their loaner since October of last year when I first sent my new computer to them. - HI Raggmopp,
I dont' see how a new computer will fix the issue as it's a software related issue except you have tested it on another computer that works?
It would be best to test if they can install your program on their computer, are you able to give me the installation file so I can check if everything works?
Thanks,

Thanks for the info. I can't actually follow your instructions yet as I've had to send my computer back to HP repair for the third time. Think I'm going to ask that they just replace the computer rather than trying to repair it another time.
I do appreciate your help and your time, thank you.
