    Anyone tried SK with Windoz 11?

    It's been a while since you posted, but thought I'd let the community know that I just installed SideKick 98 on a Windows 11 operating system using the same instructions for a Windows 10 install ... and it works just fine. Now, that Windows 11 is a real challenge...

    Can't Get SideKick98 to work on new laptop

    Wonders never cease! After failing to get SideKick 98 to install on the new Lenovo Legion 540 laptop using Windows 10 Home 64-bit ver. 1909 (all attempts described above) and giving up and returning the laptop, I bought an HP Pavilion using Windows 10 Home 64-bit ver. 1909. I executed only the...

    Can't Get SideKick98 to work on new laptop

    I gave up and have returned the new PC that would allow SideKick 98 to get beyond the start-up splash screen. I tried every suggestion I could find on this forum and eventually started to remove all software one-by-one that I had installed. Nothing worked. The new laptop and the old laptop...

    Can't Get SideKick98 to work on new laptop

    Waiting almost 24 hours didn't help. I've uninstalled, cleaned and reinstalled from Safe Mode several more times. I've repeated all of the above steps and also created a shortcut for the install files and run the setup file in the Disk 1 folder as administrator. Compatibility for the setup file...

    Can't Get SideKick98 to work on new laptop

    I've been a SideKick 98 user since the beginning and have installed it on several computers as I've upgraded hardware. It seems I've always had some bugs to work through with multiple installs. This forum has been my install savior. Right now I am trying to install on a Windows 10 Home 64 bit...

    SK98/WINDOWS 10

    After installing Windows 10, SideKick98 not only will not preserve Toolbar preferences on a computer re-boot, but SideKick 98 will not open again if it has been opened and closed. A re-boot is required to get Sidekick to open again.

    Invalid file to complete this action! Day:wk

    Jim, Thank you for your suggestion. I tried switching off programs one at a time and tried working in Safe Mode. I finally figured out I needed to go into msconfig and disable programs in Services and Startup. I "think" I have isolated the culprit program. I added a Western Digital MyCloud...

    Invalid file to complete this action! Day:wk

    I have been successfully using Sidekick98 with the patch on 64-bit Windows 7 for several years. A couple of months ago I started getting a message "Invalid file to complete this action!" when I tried to type or copy text on the To Do section for a future date. If I tried to move to another date...

    SideKick 98 and Vista Home - not Vista Home Premium

    I've read multiple threads and have reference to SideKick 98 compatibility when installed on Vista Home Premium operating systems...but have not seen Vista Home mentioned. Has anyone installed on Vista Home? Issues encountered?
