HexMan Posted July 11, 2019 Report Share Posted July 11, 2019 Hi guys! I am trying to install the latest version of VisiLogic, but it is not possible in my Windows 10 x64 (PRO) laptop. Trying in a VM with Windows 7 works fine... Any idea? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanT Posted July 11, 2019 Report Share Posted July 11, 2019 Hi; Been there , done that. This is a Windows related issue. There is an install shield file that has information in it causing the problem, and has to be moved or deleted. Here is a solution: CAUTION : I Take NO Responsibility for anything that happens ( good or bad)!!!!! Local Administrator privileges may be necessary. KNOW what you are doing! Open C:\Program Files (x86)\InstallShield Installation Information There are a few or many very oddly named folders e.g. {12AB95C7-C72D-4CF5-9B6D-7452DF048C56} Starting at the top, click on the folder to open it: Each folder has a group of files. Look for the file : Setup.ini Double click to open the file or open the file in Notepad ( Notepad ONLY, this is a simple Text File) Top Line [Startup] 2nd line AppName= If the App name is NOT VisiLogic, close Notepad ( DO NOT do a Save or Save As) Move on the next folder If the Appname= is VisiLogic, Close Notepad Back out of that folder, Cut the Folder and Paste it into the Downloads Folder -- Just a safe place to put it for now. Also Rename the Folder and ADD - VisiLogic Restart the VisiLogic Installation, and ( fingers crossed ) it should go smoothly. You can also run a registry cleanup program later to locate and delete unused registry entries. Dant 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DanT Posted July 12, 2019 Report Share Posted July 12, 2019 Hi Aus; Too Many times, and a bit of research, registry editing(hacking), and help from other sources. There is a registry entry that has to be removed/bypassed , but this is a safer way. Dant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It often solves incomplete uninstall problems.
