Computer app for Windows 10

[Frippe31]

I have change from Windows 7 to Windows 10 and can not find the download for Netgear Genie app to Windows 10. Does anyone knows where I can find it?

Head to the Netgear Genie Landing Page, click away the Nighthawk App nag poop-up, scroll down to the end - there you find the links for "Download PC" and "Download Mac".

And of course it's silly that Netgear has removed it form the support downloads - considering these two apps have to stay for a while, arerequired for featurs Netgear has sold with the routers so the support has to continue, ... @Christian_R  @ChristineT   more discussion items.

What does not work? It's a Windows 32-bit desktop application, runs like a charm on Windows 10 on 32-bit (x86) and 64-bit (AMD64/Intel 64) systems.

Hi: Thank you for your reply.

It won't even load anymore.

It's worked fine in the past.

Is there a setting I must adjust?

[schumaku]

Not much I can think of - rub the ubiquitous uninstall, reboot, and reinstall to start with.

Any Internet Security g*****e in place on this Windows 10 system probably?

Hi: Thank you for all your help.

Still won't load even after doing what you recommended.

What are you doing and what happens?

I fear that "won't load" could mean anything.

As @schumaku says, the desktop genie runs just fine in Windows 10 and in all flavours of "bitness".

Can you see it in Task Manager?

Windows (and the Genie program) is unfortunatley not very verbose or informative if something goes wrong launching a .exe
