Megawizard won't launch in 10, worked in 9

I have a project which was started in version 9.  

When I double click on any lpm module (lpm_counter, lpm_compare, etc) , it launches the megawizard editor, allowing me to make changes to the lpm module. 

 

I am now using version 10 on windows XP, and this doesn't work anymore. 

 

Can anyone tell me how to fix it?

They're dropping support for a lot of the lpm_stuff. It seems that they were too busy on V10 making a bunch of other things not work right so that they didn't have the time to just leave other things alone.  

 

I don't know about projects started on V9, but native V10 versions have a page in RightClick->Properties that let you change things like unused inputs, width, etc. You may find that lots of these things don't work either. You can't just enter a number and some drop-down menus don't have valid entries for the parameter, etc. It's really a crap shoot whether you can do what you need to do.

The support for some of the functions will be back in QII ver. 10.1 planned for December.

Sounds like similar problems I've seen in Xilinx tools. I was hoping for more here. Oh well. Thanks for the answers guys.
