Hi Marty, I just installed the IDV on a Windows 10 machine that has never seen the IDV before, and things appear to work just fine. I was able to create a 3D isosurface of wind speeds from the GFS 0.25 degree output without issue. Also, no warnings from Windows during the install, so the signed IDV seems to be working just fine as well. BTW - this was was the stable release (IDV 5.1u2 from the website).
