Quick update. When I run FH in compatability mode I am able to drag and drop but am unable to save anything. I am going to have an IT work colleague have a look into it.

Thanks for your continued help. I have tried everything you suggested up to a clean install from my version 4 disc to v6 to v6.2 each time right clicking and running as administrator but nothing has worked. I will contact Calico Pie Support. As this is only a small part of the program and everything...

I am currently using FH 6.0 on Windows 10. I have downloaded the files (6.0.4 & 6.1.2) to my PC but I get an error message "An error has occurred. Setup will now exit." when I try to install either file. I have tried downloading and installing numerous times. Can anyone help please?

Thanks for taking the time to reply. I followed your advice and reinstalled FH v6 (right clicking run as admininstrator) and now everything works as I would expect it to. Thanks very much for your help.
