Art,

Thank's for that, the MSI installed perfectly.

Thanks for taking the time to sort this for me, I appreciate it.

Hi Colundra:

  Use the site www.gearotic.com , there is a link to a msi installer.
I made this for Win10 as it sometimes see's the word "Gearotic"
as Erotic and assumes its porn.

  The msi installer follows the win10 convention better and I dont
have reports of its failing.
 
  Also, many installs have timeouts set about 2 years after their
creation. This was done as a safety measure to ensure your
not using something long changed.

  As of next install, I have removed the two year time limit
for any installer executable. The MSI doesnt timeout at all.

Thx
Art

Art,

I only have saved versions in exe's.

Is there somewhere I can access them in .msi

Thanks

Hi:

  Does the .msi installer also fail?

Installing older versions on Windows 8.1

by Caloundra Jet » Sun May 26, 2019 11:42 pm

Hi,

I have used gearoticmotion years ago on an older computer with windows 7 that has since died.

I would like to install gearoticmotion on this computer that runs Windows 8.1.

I have a lot of different versions of gearoticmotion and I have my license file, however no version will
install. The install starts then stops with the error as per the attachment.

I have done a search but nothing seems to match the problem.

I don't really need the newest version for the current project.

Any help would be appreciated.
