Well, looks like I'm back up and running. I had to do the Regedit and remove the entire folder under Software and rerun the installer, I did I have do this two times for it to work but I now have WinDV running and working on my Win10 Surf e Pro2.

here is what I did:

Windows Key + r

type regedit 

click ok

click yes 

scroll to HKEY_CURRENT_USER

expand with arrow 

scroll to SOFTWARE

expand with arrow

scroll to MicroWalt Corporation

highlight, right click delete

rerun WinDV installer

once installed run WinDV in Win7 Compatability Mode

this was a frustrating battle but it's fixed and I'm happy.

73,

Brendan
