I have no experience with it (obviously). Interesting, but I still do not understand how the virtual box method works.

You would run Windows 7 inside of Windows 10 through the Virtual Machine. You would install a program like Virtual Box and install Windows 7 to it. It is possible to attach the USB floppy drive to another computer that does not have Windows 10 and transfer the contents to a USB flash drive? Is this a bootable floppy disk? Also I do not see a way to MAKE Windows 10 check for updates on-demand. Some online articles said that Windows 10 'will' automatically download and install updates for things like this but I am not too sure that this has happened. I checked with the company which made the external floppy disk drive, and NO DRIVER support/ no drivers available.Īlso I tried plugging in the floppy disk drive, opening Windows Update, but nothing happens. Going through Devices & Printers, I found only some trouble trying to open certain files on one floppy disk, but not much trouble opening files on most other floppy disks, except for some default application capabilities between the applications on the computer and applications used for creating files from many years ago. 'VM w/W7', I have no understanding of any kind. If they don't offer it, another possible option would be to try a VM w/W7 or earlier and see if it'll mount the floppy drive there. You'll have to get a driver for the floppy drive (from the floppy drive manufacturer) that's compatible w/W10.
