Default Windows 10 + PT12 & PT10???

Hi,

Finally preparing to move a few systems over to Windows 10, but I can't find any info on whether it's possible to co-install PT10 along with PT12 (I know it wont be officially supported by Avid)..

I remember a few pioneers had success running PT10 on Windows 10, but is the co-install with PT12 even possible, let alone successful for anyone out there?

I still have to deal with old RTAS based sessions, so I need a working version of PT10 for the foreseeable future.

I'd rather not have to maintain a system on Win 7, or go the dual-boot route - though I suppose worst case scenario ; I could have a Windows 10 system that has PT10, without installing PT12.

So, anyone successfully co-installed PT10 & PT12 on Windows 10?

Cheers!

IIRC, you would need to install 10 first, then 12.

I just kept the old system drive with 10 on Windows 7 and swap drives when I need to open an older session(all my drives are in easy-swap drive cages).
