Me too. The adaptor works ok, but the A6210 Genie won't display on the W10 Pro Desktop - it just flashes an outline screen and then disappears. The Netgear Genie works ok.

I then went to here: http://www.netgear.co.uk/home/discover/apps/genie.aspx?cid=wmt_netgear_organic and downloaded the genie software independently of the A6210 software and installed it.

That is the Netgear Genie (which works ok) NOT the A6210 Genie - which is different and has stopped working with the latest W10 updates.
