Well this is not a new issue. Very often Windows kills its beautiful tools or applications when upgrade to a new version. As you've already experienced what happened with Windows Photo Viewer, the same thing is done to the Calculator which was available on Windows 7 and 8.
But tech lovers know very well that there is always a way. I've found an .exe file of Old Calculator from Winaero. If you download and install this file, you can get your old calculator back in latest version of Windows!
Why do you need your old calculator back?
The new touch interface enabled calculator is not bad at all. To be honest it looks really cool. But an important feature is missing in this program i.e. Worksheets.
With this option you can calculate -
What if this old calculator cause malfunction to your new one?
If your Windows 10 calculator doesn't work after installing the old one then follow the steps below:
With this option you can calculate -
- Mortgage
- Vehicle Lease
- Fuel Economy
Besides if you're in love with classic interface then you can install this program on your PC.
Without the Worksheets option, the new calculator has almost all features. If you don't need the Worksheets option, then I would like to recommend you not to install the old calculator.
Caution!
Your default calculator may not function once you've installed the old calculator. Even if you uninstall this, the default calculator may not run. This is what happened to me after I've tried the old one!
