Just when you thought you were done with this….. I’m running 4.13 on a windows 10 computer. I have a big problem getting any reports to run properly but today it is the check and repair function. No option that I choose gives me a “working” indication. I’m trying to be proactive before upgrading. Couldn’t find anything in the manual.
