I've been using Sibelius 6.1 with windows XP. I now have a brand new computer with windows 10 loaded. When I try to load my 6.1 disc I'm told it needs Microsoft net framework in order to load. My computer already has this. What can I now do?

Does the install fail? If the pop-up has an OK button click it and continue with the install. Sibelius is looking for a particular version of .net, and W10 just has a newer one. Should work just fine.

but which version of .net does it need. The OK button simply closes off the installation.....

Still using 6.1? You should surely have updated to 6.22 long ago?
