*------------------------------Problems with Windows 10QRQ.EXE flashes and
the black window goes away failing to open.Uninstall the program or delete
it.Reinstall in C:\QRQ.EXE, not in C:\Program Files (x86)\QRQ.EXERebooting
sometimes helps - You may need to repeat this occasionally.How to convert
.qcb files to .txt or .txt. to qcb files?.qcb files are the same as .txt
files. Just change the extension.Copy the .qcb files to the same folder
where QRQ.EXE is located.You can edit any .qcb file by opening in Notepad
and 'Saving As...' a .qcb file after the changes.Some notes about using
QRQ.EXEDouble click on the QRQ icon on the desktop - Press ENTERPress F5 -
"Configuration " will open.These are my settings:Initial Speed - Use the
UP/DOWN arrow to change to 30 or 40 wpmAllow unlimited F6 - Press F to
'yes'Unlimited attempts - Press u to 'yes'Callsign databases - Press d to
got to "Change Callsign Database" window-- Press the DOWN arrow to go the
.qcb file you want, then press ENTER.-- Press F2 to save the
configuration.Press F10 - Ignore the "Usage" at this time, text, it applies
to a different settingPress ENTER - you hear the first word at 30 wpmPress
F6 to repeat as many times you want the same word.You can use 'Page
Up/Down' to change the speed at any time.You can type the word but I prefer
to press ENTERIt displays the word you just heard and you hear the next
word.Press F7 as may times as you want to hear again the previous word
which is now displayed.Press F6 to hear again the next word.Repeat with all
the other words.At the end, press ENTER and then F5 to go to
'Configuration' again.Press 'd' and select a new .qcb file to practice.Do
not type or write anything, just use your mind to learn the CW wordsThere's
a nice You Tube video <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LvQ5t8PGARs> that
demonstrates most of the abovehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LvQ5t8PGARs
