Some time between 1440z and 2124z yesterday, my WSPR software decided to close down, so all reports in that period were lost. I think the PC decided to update Windows 8.1 software. I should have noticed it had closed sooner, so I blame myself and no-one else. I like to leave updates running so I get the latest Windows updates as soon as I can. WSPR closing when updates come in seems a common issue with Win 8.1.
Since 2124z yesterday only locals and GDX on 6m, no Es here.

Hi Roger, now I am running Windows 7 (64 bit) and I like it. But when I have to replace my computer because it's getting old, I will replace Windows 8 for Windows 7. I read a lot of troubles with Windows 8 (it's like Vista) 73 Paul PC4T
Thanks Paul. Win 8.1 seems very stable and I can live with this small issue. It means I have to keep checking the software, which is no bad thing.
You can set the updates to download but not install until you choose. This prevent Windows from ever re-starting your computer without your consent.
Thanks David, I should chose that option.
