Server not running on Windows 10 Home #53

Closed floormanager1 closed 1 year ago

floormanager1 commented 1 year ago

Hello, after the success earlier, I thought I'd install the server on an old laptop running a fresh install of Windows 10 Home. When I run the RunSling.bat file, the screen rolls over with the error 'This version of C:...\slingbox_server.exe is not compatible with the version of Windows you're running'.

If I try to run the sling-server.exe file, I get a Windows' error stating 'This app can't run on your PC'.

The server works perfectly on other Windows 10 laptops. What am I missing? Thank you Paul

Maybe a 32 bit vs 64 bit issue. How old is that laptop? You may need to poke into the BIOS to enable 64 bit.

Right again! Reinstalled with X64 and we're off and running. Thank you for all your excellent work.
