Carl;

I believe that would be a wonderful addition to our QA tools. Currently
I am using windows 10, but do not have the disk capacity for a build
environment. If you can get this working it would enable me to
contribute much more to  our QA efforts.

I am more than willing to run any tests needed for Windows 10 Professional.

Regards,
Keith
