Windows 10, .Net 4.6 and Dentrix: What You Need to Know

Microsoft released the Windows 10 operating system and its programming infrastructure .net 4.6 on July 29, 2015.

As of May 2016, Microsoft started automatically upgrading users to Windows 10. As a Dentrix customer, both the Windows 10 upgrade and the .net 4.6 change will affect you and your office. In order to capitalize on these new versions and ensure that Dentrix and your other software solutions still function correctly, you need to take action before installing either Windows 10 or .net 4.6. As always, ensuring that you are running the latest version of Dentrix can help you be prepared for any other changes in the software industry.
