We need some input from Adobe! I get this error amongst others in Windows 10, and I'm astonished to see that the last supported version of Windows mentioned on the Adobe site is Windows 7! Come on Adobe - unfortunately organisations like public libraries are forced to use Adobe Digital Editions, and it's not good enough to support only old versions of Operating Systems.

I suspect that recent versions of ADE would work in Windows 8 and 10 with some amendments to permissions, but we end users are not developers and need help on this.
