Had unlicensed BI on a win7 laptop issued to me from work, a Lenovo W541. Corporate IT forced an upgrade to windows 10, and now BI doesn't run at all. So far, BI is the only thing I've found not to have survived the 'upgrade' to win10.

IT claims they are not blocking it any way, and firewall etc is all disabled (for troubleshooting)
and I would expect any 'blocking' app to at least TELL me it's being blocked...

(see images)

I've tried completely uninstalling, including hunting down and manually deleting any BI-related files after the uninstall, and re-in stalling. same deal.

looked at some of the older BI 'updates' downloadable here, but seems like you have to have a running BI to apply them.

Anyone had this issue and found a workaround? maybe an older full install script? not sure where to find those... thanx.
