Installing older versions on Windows 8.1

[Caloundra Jet]

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.

Hi:

  Does the .msi installer also fail?

Art,

I only have saved versions in exe's.

Is there somewhere I can access them in .msi

Thanks

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,

Thank's for that, the MSI installed perfectly.

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