No problem installed on the desktop/in the Start menu with either
Windows 7/64 Pro or Win 8.1/64 on hardware from an old Core2Duo to
an i7. However, I am using a traditional mouse and not the touch
pad or touch screen.

Thank for the response.
The problem is the same when I start up using Metro.
Why do I run in Vista compatibility mode, because the native mode is unusable
(at least by me)
It seems that part of the issue is some combination of where and how far I move
the window. I can move the windows in a bunch of small steps, but big moves
are fatal. Even small ones are sensitive to where on the screen you are.

Why are you using compatibility mode?
Writelog works just fine in native Window 7, Windows 8 and Widows 8.1 systems.
I'd suspect there is a mismatch between the native and virtual window positions
in the virtual (compatibility) environment.

On my Windows 8 computer, in compatibility mode, I am having trouble moving
windows.
If I open a new SuperCheckPartial window it opens docked in the main window. I
can move the cursor to the edges and see the cursor change to a box. Then when
I try to drag it, it moves but then disappears when I release the mouse button.
At this point there is no way to get it back, including trying to close and
reopen the SCP window. I can get it to work if I move the main window to the
right and move the SCP window to the left. However, if I move the SCP window
some more to the right, it will eventually disappear. Also, the cursor
position does not generally line up with where the window ultimately gets
placed. The same is true of the other windows under the windows tab.
It has always worked fine on my XP, Win2K, Win98 computers with no
incidents. I am running 11.19 but it also happened with 11.09. The
same versions work as expected on an XP machine
Any help appreciated
Thanks and 73
