Honestly I have not done an audit yet to see what version of Windows is because it was something we talked at a meeting of a few minutes we had last Saturday and this migration was something I was thinking today to propose next Saturday in another meeting. But I do not think it is Windows 10. Anyway I would have to check it. > Are we talking server software here or a desktop system that non-IT staff > interact with? It is a client-server system. Doctors in each consulting room are connected to this server using a desktop client. This server keeps track of clinical records of patients, medical studies, among other things. Thanks again for your time. Kind regards, Daniel
