Sorry it is off topic but do not know where to go.
I want to transfer some documents that were written in RiscOS to
Windows 10 Ovation Pro, I have not used VirtualRPC for a long time,
probably prior to W10, it is not working wondering if anyone can help?

I often write OvnPro documents in RISC OS (Using RISC OS OvnPro) and
then read them in OvnPro for Windows (I have Windows 10). The format of
the document is the same in OvnPro for RISC OS and OvnPro for Windows.
However ...
You will find that when you look in Windows at an OvnPro which you have
created in RISC OS then you will find that the filename is something
like '<filename>,b27' (rather than the '<filename>' which you see in
RISC OS). In Windows change the filename extension so that the filename
reads '<filename>.dpd'. Then you'll be able to read the file using
OvnPro for Windows.
