Missing Simpack.bin, new install on Windows 10

Just installed Windows 10, Pokeys and latest Auggie 1.51. Copied changed panels, scripts and profiles from old installation.
Starting Auggie without Pokeys, I get the option to start simulation, and select yes. Next dialog says that "Missing Simpack.bin file.".
The file "Simpack.bin" is found in the same directory as Auggie.exe.
Pressing OK and shutting Auggie down generates an error (too fast to read...) and Auggie restarts.
What went wrong?

Hi Art:
I was suspecting Windows 10 as this was the new element...
Looking forward to next version.

I always install in C:\Gearotic to avoid file access problems :)
Will it work as a Portable program? (Not using registry and saving settings in program directory)
I am a fan of portable programs - so easy to handle...

It doesnt use the registry for much, the settings for it are for the most part local to the
profile in the profile folder. I too dont like Registry use, always seems to screw up..
