Topic: Installing Watsonian vice-counties on Windows 10

I have down loaded the installation tool from the NBN tools website. If I try to run it I get a message along the lines that the program cannot run on my machine. Is this tool supported in Windows 10 and if not does anyone know of a source of the vice-county outline that can be installed? I only require VC32.

I can't get the application to open in Windows 10 even in compatibility mode. However, you don't need to use this to get to the polygons. On the NBN site you have the option to Download Individual County Files polygons (also polylines) . You should be able to find the files you need in this download in both ESRI and Mapinfo format, which you can use in R6 and  other applications.
