Aurora-R4, Windows 10, Command Center?
Hi, so I had some difficulties getting Windows 10 to work, and had to do a clean reinstall of the 10240 edition of Windows 10, and even then some of the apps refused to work. I tried to reinstall Command Center, but it was incompatible with Windows 10 and refused to install.
I now have the Windows 10 Anniversary Edition Updated version 1607 14393.51 and everything that wasn't working is now working, except I do not have the Alienware Command Center installed.
I can't seem to find a Windows 10 compatible Command Center for the Aurora R4 in the Downloads section.
Assuming this means there isn't actually a Windows 10 compatible Alienware Command Center for desktops, do I have any options for reinstalling a working Alienware Command Center?
Thank you very much for any good advice.

Did you attempt to install the 3.6.5.0 A04 Windows 7/8.1 Command Center? Can you right click the file, click the Compatibility tab, choose Compatibility mode, then try to run it.

Thanks Chris. It does indeed appear to work, and found my previous settings somewhere as well, which is surprising but hey, I lost some others I thought I had saved, so fair's fair.
So I see there is also an Alienware Command Center 4.0 available for download as well. Would that have been an inappropriate choice?

Inappropriate, correct. The 4.0 and newer were not validated on the Aurora-R4.

this is my R4 on CmndCntr 4.0
I did not allow it to flash my MI/O board with the newer firmware (it was installed with MIO USB cable disconnected); long story short, stick to 3.6
this is my ALX on 4.0
the remnants of Phobos | Deimos GUI is present but our MIOs are not up to the task
