[Elecraft] Elecraft K3 Utility problem

[Jim Sheldon]

  First, I just tried this (never used it before) and have the same 
problem here under Windows 7 Professional 32 bit on an HP 6300 running 
an Intel Core i5 quad core processor, 16 gig of ram.  It came loaded 
with the 32 bit version of Win7 Pro and I made the mistake of loading 
all my programs on it.  Now I can't switch to the 64 bit version of Win 
7 or upgrade to the 64 bit Windows 10 without losing all the loaded 
programs and having to reload everything.

You have already informed Elecraft of this problem by posting here.  The 
person who writes the code for the Utility monitors this list though you 
could also call Elecraft Tech Support (see their website for the phone#) 
and let them know as well.
