If it could explain why it isn't working, maybe you could use screen recording software to record the message, then play it back in slow motion?

Windows 7 has been supported since TB v4 or thereabouts.

I'd try to get the software to work first. Then go to Options | Preferences | System and take a note of the Mail Directory (or change it if you prefer a different location. Be sure not to use a location that is kept read-only by Windows' 'User Access Control', which did not exist in XP).

However, I don't think you can just copy your old mail folder to the new one on your new machine, because it's still in a format (TB v2) that hasn't been in use for 15 years or so, and I'm not sure if a current TB will convert it automatically. You could give it a try of course, as long as you have a backup. Have you tried searching this forum? For me, googling "yada yada site:ritlabs.com" is usually more productive than using the forum's own search function. If all else fails, you'd best contact Ritlabs' tech support by opening a ticket from the Support menu above.

My V2 version of TB Pro worked like a charm on my main (ultra-secure) XP Pro SP3 machine until recently, when a mobo component went bad. I rebuilt my machine with Win 7 Pro 64-bit with a quad-core AMD CPU and downloaded the latest TB Pro version but it simply does not work.

When I click on the shortcut, a super-brief message appears on my screen, but it disappears so fast that I cannot even read it.

I also see THREE (!!) instances of TB in Task Manager... Why?

I got the same result when I tried to open the program after having copied my accounts folders into the TB appdata folder (this worked fine with older versions, is there a new procedure to restore all data and emails?)

I'm at a loss. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
