Hi,
I have successfully installed the Hobbyist License from https://training.vmssoftware.com/hobbyist on Windows 10 Pro 64 bit
However, when I use the Virtual Alpha Configuration Utility and try save to the configuration I encounter the attached error.
We believe the issue is with FreeAXP not liking spaces.
Hope you can help.
Regards,
Anthony

Re: Hobbyist License - issue saving configuration
Hi,
It turns out that Virtual Alpha Configuration Utility does not like the configuration file included in the Student Package altogether – we will try and fix that in the next revision.
Meanwhile please create a new configuration file and there manually add the Student Package image file (go to the pci6 tab and choose the OpenVMS Student Package.img file). Save the new file and run the emulation.
Please let us know if this works.

Or load the .cfg file into a text editor and make all filenames fully-specified, as requested. The configuration utility doesn't like filenames without a path, it seems.
There is something wrong with everything that is popular.
