Ivo has the answer. v8i ss10. Bentley needed to do something to extend a working CAD platform beyond July, their solution was ss10. Connect is buggy as a month old slice of fruit.

Dear Chutiphon Moranon,

There's a new version out since yesterday, called Microstation SS10. That's a version that is supported a bit longer then SS1-2-3-4, but also it is Windows 10 compliant. They skipped the other five SelectSeries just to get to ten I guesse. Furthermore it is claimed that "with complete fidelity of existing workspaces and MDL customizations"

Duncan is absolut right. An other solution would be to work with a virtual Maschine, we have some customers who works with MS/J and Win-XP in this way, because it is necessary for a long-time-running project.

Microstation V8i SS3 is not supported on Windows 10 (although plenty of people run it) so you won't get any support from Bentley on this. Your only chance is to go back to the people who wrote the add-in and see if they can help or upgrade to SS10 or Connect.
