windows Bipolar-0.5.2.297.exe fails to install / start - MSVCP140.dll missing #64

Closed AndreasAusD closed 8 years ago

Hello,

just tried to install version Bipolar-0.5.2.297.exe on Win7 64Bit, Polar Flow Sync 2.6.2

During the install provess a message appeared that the hook could not be installed. By trying to do that step manually "bipolar.exe -install-hook" am message box stated that "MSVCP140.dll" is missing

MSVCP120.dll is present in the Bipolar path, but no MSVCP140.dll

Regards Andreas

Oh... yeah, that would be because when switching to Qt 5.6 on AppVeyor, I also set AppVeyor to release the msvc2015 build, but forgot to update the NSIS install script.

Feel free to drop back to the 0.5.1 release for now (there's no functional difference). Alternatively, if you really want the 0.5.2 version number (or Qt 5.6), the msvc2013 build should be correct. You can get that build directly from AppVeyor - https://ci.appveyor.com/project/pcolby/bipolar/build/master-297/job/305egmii7hfoyd08/artifacts

I'll update the installer to use the MSVC dlls, but in the meantime, I'll switch the Github release artifacts (from the msvs2015 build to msvc2013 build).

Thanks!

Done.

ok, going back to 0.5.1 did the trick, thank you
