Banjaxter your answer was interesting, but unfortunately not complete enough for me. Are you operating the The Major BBS v10 on a virtual drive etc. on Windows 11? What is your Windows 11 setup for running your board? Thank you very much for your reply.

Endyr,

You can run MBBS v10 on Windows 11 just as Banjaxster is. I am also running v10 on Windows 11 Professional 64bit. My setup may differ slightly as I have the BBS on a VHD drive.

As to your question, I am not sure what you're looking for.

Can The Major BBS v10 run on Windows 11 without using a virtual drive? I'm interested in finding out if it can run on a Windows 11 computer "right out of the box" as they say.

He answered your question exactly how you asked it. Maybe in the future, you can include the information you are seeking in your initial question.

And yes, i chose to put it on a VHD drive as I wanted to isolate just to the BBS to that drive for that purpose.
