Installer doesn't work #82

Closed benthurley82 closed 6 years ago

benthurley82 commented 6 years ago

Hi @WorksOfLiam,

I just tried installing on my Win 10 laptop but the installer doesn't seem to work. I get a popup saying "Verifying application requirements. This may take a few moments." but a split second later the popup vanishes and nothing else happens.

I'm sorry it's not much to go on. Let me know if there's any debug output I can get for you to help.

Cheers Ben

Hey Ben

I had a quick look into this today but should be able to give a better update tomorrow.

Probably something .NET related and is hopefully a simple fix.

Thanks! Liam

Hi @benthurley82

After some Googling there is a few options available.

  1. Running as admin (right click-> Run as Administrator)
  2. Disabling or uninstalling Dell System Detect: http://www.dell.com/support/article/uk/en/ukbsdt1/sln117738/dell-supportassist-formerly-dell-system-detect-overview-and-common-questions?lang=en (towards the bottom)

Please let me know how you get on.

Thanks!

Ok it seems to work now. I'm not 100% sure what fixed it. Yesterday I tried downloading the .net core library version linked from the ILEditor homepage but it didn't fix anything. However, I've since rebooted so that could have done the trick. I did already have .net core installed but different versions. Just now I tried running as admin and the app started but whether that was because I was running as admin or due to the .net core dependency I don't know.

For info it looks like I have installed .NET Core Runtime 2.1.0 x64 .NET Core SDK 2.1.104 x64

I had the SDK already but tried installing the specific runtime to get ILEditor working.
