I thought, I'd leave a quick reply since this question comes up from time to time:
SilverFast 6.5 doesn't officially work with Win10. It was developped in 2006 while Windows XP was still current OS with Vista not being published.
In terms of computers, ten years is a lot of time and a lot has changed since then. In the meantime we have seen Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8 and Windows 10.
It might feel like a lot less than ten years have passed, though.
SilverFast 6.6. is still a 32bit application. It still works with the systems that it was built for.
You might get to work on a Win10 64bit system, too. However, this is nothing that we'd recommend.
SilverFast 8 is out now for several years. It's a 64bit application that can use your system ressources way better than limited 32bit applications.
You can get SilverFast 8 at an upgrade price with your SilverFast 6.6. license so that you don't have to pay the full price again.
