just a quick one, i used the forum search but most posts are about HEM 2...

is HEM 1 working fine with windows 8?

i'm about to buy a new laptop (replacing my current one) and, well, all machines come with windows 8 now
(i'm aware i could downgrade but don't want to have to).

can i install and run HEM 1 plus database on windows 8? or will there be issues?

For postgres problems with Win 8. It's a little different from Win 7.




The show hidden files is a little different.


It is located in the View - Options section. At the top, there are 4 menu buttons - File, Home, Share, View. Click the view. From there, it's just like in all other windows. Folder Options hasn't changed.




Getting to programs is a PITA without the Start menu. To run CMD as an admin:


go to the start screen, where it lists all your programs.


Right click in the bottom right, it shows "All Apps" button. Click that.


Go to the Windows section.


There, you see Command prompt.


Right click that, at the bottom, on the left, are options. Click Run as Administrator

Most of the issues are in setting folder permissions and the password.
