[Equest-users] Windows 10 SIM File

Fri Apr 7 06:56:49 PDT 2017

not that i've seen this with equest yet, but have you tried running 
Equest as a guest user?  i.e. shift-right click on the executable & 
select run as other user (or different user).  if you're using a vm 
(vmware) this can happen with other programs.
