Sleepyhead quit opening after early June update
Clicking either the shortcut icon or the ".exe" file does not evoke any response that can be seen as a running/starting process using Task Manager. There is nothing.
My SH was installed in fall of 2015. I'm not certain any updates have been applied. This is my first SH problem.
I recall but can't find a recent post that reported a SH problem after W10 updated (about 6/1/17). Please help with a suggestion or point me toward the earlier thread.
I think Mark Watkins indicated he would not adapt SH to certain new features of W 10--possibly for 64 bit computers (which I have). For that reason I have not (yet) tried reinstalling.
OFF-POINT APPRECIATION:
Thanks to applying expertise in this forum I've migrated from high AHI and high leak--little restful sleep--land to frequent zero and near zero night land. The latest application was trying the cervical collar and getting a perfect flat-line zero leakage except for the last minutes as I awoke. I am a recovering mouth breather using the P10, Lansinoh, Silipos Gel-E Roll (a mouth sealing compress) and, now, the collar. No more FFM and over the head chinstraps! But tongue training continues in efforts to avoid balloon cheeks and aerophagia.
My pressure curves are like plots of the heights of flow limit bar maxima. The pressure range is set about 0.2 cm below recent months' minimum sleeping pressure and pressure only drops that low, briefly, while awake. The upper limit is reached only a time or two a week. The settings reflect a member's rule of thumb more in the upper limit than in my sightly lower lower limit; to set trial pressure round the (90%?) limit up and add 2 cm; then round the (90%?) down and deduct 2cm. There are very few OSAs that escape APAP pre-emption by my 9.6-15.0 range.

I have no particular qualifications or expertise with respect to the apnea/cpap/sleep related content of my posts beyond my own user experiences and what I've learned from others on this site. Each of us bears the burden of evaluating the validity and applicability of what we read here before acting on it.
Of my 3 once-needed, helpful, and adjunctive devices I have listed, only the accelerometer remains operative (but now idle). My second CMS50I died, too, of old age and the so-so Dreem 2 needs head-positioning band repair--if, indeed, Dreem even supports use of it now.
