[RESOLVED] 18.40 "This program does not support the version of Windows your computer is running" when attempting to install

[Lorecarver]

@Draco1962 Yes, again, you are correct, I managed to forget to install this, I did as you suggested and everything is playing the .mp4 files once again.

Question:  I've been running GameEx Version 18.38 on Windows 7 64 bit system (Yes, Registered) since it came out...  I downloaded the new upadted version, 18.40, however, when I go to install it, I get an error message saying, "This program does not support the version of Windows your computer is running"

I have downloaded the Version several times, but get the same error message when trying to install.  I have tried uninstalling the original program off my system, cleaning the registry and then trying to install the program, but that didn't work either.  I really don't want to have to wipe my harddrive and reinstall windows incase it is a glich someone knows how to fix first.

Any ideas on this one?  Lol, other than that, the system (Version 18.38) is running flawlessly and set up exactly the way I want it to be/look, Amazing Program that out Shines any others in my books!!

Thanks again

I've not installed the latest version as of yet. I have a Windows 10 system so may not be able to replicate what you are reporting.

P.S. I split this thread from you other post as a separate issue for elevation.

[Draco1962]

I have verified that I am able to download, install, and launch the latest x64 version to my Win 10 system. Tom will need to look into this to see if there is a missing Windows 7 dependency.

A quick question or request - did you attempt to use the 32-bit version and, if not, can you try that to see if you get the same results?

I noticed the switch from .net 7 back to .net 6 was mentioned in the announcement thread due to lesser performance in .net 7.  Anyway, probably unrelated, but still an interesting move......if I'm reading it correctly.

I just checked, thats what I thought I screwed up on. The minimum supported version in the installer says 6.1 though for the core version. That is windows 7. So it should be fine.

[Tom Speirs]

Oh wait. Your absoluitely right. New version incoming now.

[Tom Speirs]

Fixed 18.41 out.

Todd is right. I moved to .net 7 that didnt support win 7. Then realised it was a bad move but I neglected to update the installer when reverting.

Haha, I didn’t word my post well and will stop there, but seems the end result was a positive one.😀

Good going both of you!
