I am trying to make my sample I sent you much easier to compile ... this whole Windows 11 extra page thing is bizarre .. I see in this post some people are saying it is a outdated print driver .. I have my doubts. I have a full day today but I plan on simplifying my sample so you can easily work with it and re-compile ... Thank you so much, I just can't believe I am the first person to find this extra page with windows 11, unless no one is really using windows 11 yet and this behavior just has not shown up yet ..

Dear Rick,
I've been using Windows 11 on all my computers for over a year now, and I've never encountered this problem.
I think the problem may be with the installation of the printer drivers, which could have been caused by the fact that the installation of Windows 11 was not "clean", that is, perhaps Windows 11 had to be installed over the previous installation of Windows 10.

Thanks to Antonio ... all you have to do :
You get the Windows dialog box because you are using "FROM USER" clause. If you remove it, then you don't get it:
PRINTER oPRINT ; // FROM USER
The above fix works on W10 and W11 ..

I confirm the information from Mr. Rick. More people reported on the Fivewin Brazil forum, problems with the Fivewin FROM USER command.
Regards, saludos.
