Hi grumpybs,
The latest version of the NETGEAR Genie should be compatible with Windows 10.

Hi tomdaltonz, BobP01, and carll76,
1. May I know if you have tried installing the latest version (2.4.16) on top of the older version (2.4.14)?
2. Before encountering the issue, was the previous version working fine?
3. Does installing the previous version alone encounter the same issue as well?
4. Please try installing an older version (2.4.12) using the link below to see if the issue persists.
