We currently have a VB6 application utilizing BC2 to compare files in folders across 2 disks (master and clients)
The application no longer works with the move to Windows 10. Not sure if the VB6 version no longer works because BC2 does not work with Windows 10. I've rewritten the host application to be a .NET WinForm application using FW 4.6. I have also down loaded the 30 day trial copy of BC4.
The goal is to utilize a script file (also generated dynamically in same .NET app) to perform the comparisons of two files and generate an output report (.txt) silently. I.E. I do not want to start a view or see a BC window. This is how it worked under the VB6 version.
How do I accomplish this?
I have:
And I still get a sesion window/view. In the .NET applciation I will simply open a Shell / Process session and execute the BCompare.exe command.
My script file contains:
file-report layout:side-by-side options:display-mismatchs output-to:"C:\Temp\myreport" "I:\New Text Document" "I:\New Text Document (3).txt"
Can I use BC2? Will it work on Win10
We also have a lic for BC3.

How do I accomplish this?
I have:
- written a simple script to compare two files and output to a txt file
- in a command line session ran the following command to use BC4: bCompare. exe "MytestScript.txt"
