Citect 7.1 SP4. Windows 10. Melsec driver for A series PLC. Compatibility

Question

Hello, I am replacing a computer for an installation of Citect 7.1 SP4. 
 Original computer ran windows XP. New computer runs Windows 10. 
 I have an issue with Melsec driver for A series PLC. I have downloaded and installed the latest driver Melsec 2.4.0.0 . But it gives support not confirmed message before the runtime starts. The Runtime Runs and communicates, but I would like to get rid of this message pop-up so the end user is not seeing it.. 
 Anyone have any recommendations? Customer will not upgrade the software.

Hi Dave Dolomont , 
 It is by design. The message indicates that the driver is not tested against the version of IO server being used. It internationally warns the users that the driver is not supported although it may work at runtime. The software upgrade appears to be only way to resolve it. 
 Regards,

Try the citect.ini parameter: 
 [MELSEC] OverrideOSProtection=1
