Hi guys, thanks very much for the replies. bsewart, thank for the tip on right clicking the desktop icon. I can't believe I'd forgotten about those options, but I had. Tried everything I could think through the options, but the problem remains. joel_brown, yep, restarted a number of times. I've done the cold boot thing (completely power down and disconnect from power), the restart option (which apparently closes Windows more thoroughly than a normal shutdown ref: How-To-Geek) and tried wake-ups from sleep and hibernate modes. No change :( pianoguyy, no I'm talking Windows 10 patches/updates. As bsewart mentioned you can set up auto updates in W10. You do it through the Settings area. The only unusual thing I noticed was when I uninstalled HD Edit again this morning (using the Line 6 Tools utility) was that it had a problem "deleting files associated with POD HD500 Edit". I've attached a screen dump showing the message. It reinstalled fine, but the problem remains. I was able to post the screendump file into the browser using drag and drop as per usual. This has got me totally stumped.

Hi guys, I've been happily using my POD HD500 trouble free for at least 5 years - until a week or so ago. I've got pretty bad eyesight so I only ever use the POD HD500 Edit program for working on presets. I'm on PC running Windows 10 with the latest release running. All patches are applied automatically. I went to adjust a setting after not having edited anything for a month or so and when I tried to alter the order of the FX, drag and drop no longer responds. Everything else is fine, like adjusting volumes, tones etc. using the mouse. If I select an effect block, the black arrow appears above it, but if I try and drag that block, the arrow disappears and nothing happens - no vertical bar to show the new location, the block stays put, nothing. Drag and drop Is working fine in Windows and other apps. I've tried: changing the mouse (bought a new one) changing the USB cable (bought a new one) Uninstalled and reinstalled the editor several times Reinstalled the drivers and all components are up to date Changing USB ports And I don't connect via hubs or boosters. Straight in. I've got a ticket raised with support who have been trying to help, but seem to be at a loss as to what's wrong. Any suggestions are gratefully received. Thanks all. Keith

Excellent reply. Thank you.
