Installation help!
I've been using Texnic Center with MikTex for a long time. But yesterday, my computer got upgraded to Windows 10, so now I have to reinstall everything. So I redownloaded these programs...and now I can't get Texnic Center working.
The problem is in the installation wizard, when I tell it what path to use for the executable files, it keeps giving me an error. All the files seem to be in C:\Program Files\MiKTeX 2.9\miktex\bin\x64, but that doesn't seem to satisfy the install wizard.
Any ideas? It is a Windows 10 problem? Is it an installation problem? Any suggestions would be appreciated!!
Thanks!

Installation help!
welcome to the forum!
Did you manage to finish the installation? I remember I used the
bin
folder without the x64
. But that was a long time ago.TeXnicCenter doesn't seem to be actively developed. You could try TeXstudio or Texmaker, that are also capable LaTeX editors. I use the slim and fast TeXworks, as I don't need a lot of wizards and buttons.
