As it should, but this person owns exactly one win 10 box, I use for a 
smith chart display when analyzing and tuning an AM broadcast tower. It 
lives in the back seat of the truck as I don't want it to bring a virus 
into the house. It has been hooked to my local network, but my local 
net, while giving me full access to the net, also has a guard dog called 
dd-wrt between me and the cable modem. No one comes past that unless 
invited. Millions have tried and all failed.
