Question

Have been running WHS with power pack 3 for many years without problems. I am replacing a old pc on our home network and need to know if a windows 10 pc will work with our old WHS server. Can some verify with a yes or no and if yes list any additional software or work arounds needed to make them work together successfully. Thanks!

I have 2 Windows 10 Pro machines with the connector installed and working normally. I did have to add .Net, but the WHS Connector installer warns you first.

It works for me, although I never had to try a full client restore since upgrading.

But file backup as well as single file or folder restores work well.
