Does the machine have a six month uptime? Not sure what you mean by 'uptime' .. it has been powered on since January (actually for 2-3 years I think .. I accidentally powered it off once in 2018). It's a very low-power-use PC; fans rarely run. Is it connected to the internet? Yes. Always.

This is getting off topic (ooRexx on Windows versions) but briefly: Like most people I liked Windows 7 for is useful GUI and hated W8 for the opposite reason. W10 brought some usefulness back but I always add Classic Shell to it to make it more like W7. Hint for Mike. W10 is IMO really stable b

I have successfully added 64 bit Windows 8 to the Jenkins Zoo and can build 64 bit ooRexx with „success“. However, in the testing I get stuck early, on "Executing ...\ooRexx\API\oo\FUNCTION.testGroup“, the 3rd testgroup to run. I have copied the Windows 10 build steps and running the same on Wi
