Slamshut71 Posted December 19, 2016 Posted December 19, 2016 Sorry I'm new to this but while trying to install version 7.0 the setup would go no further and this is the error code I received .I even went to Microsoft website and downloaded .net framework 4.6.1 to manually install but was given the error code that it wasn't compatible with windows 7 . help please Quote
SentaiBrad Posted December 19, 2016 Posted December 19, 2016 It looks like that version of .Net is still available for Windows 7 SP1, so I am confused, unless you've never updated your install of Windows 7. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=49981 Quote
Slamshut71 Posted December 19, 2016 Author Posted December 19, 2016 I don't know but my pc is rejecting it I'll try again though Quote
Slamshut71 Posted December 19, 2016 Author Posted December 19, 2016 Ok so are you saying to upgrade windows 7 ? Quote
DOS76 Posted December 19, 2016 Posted December 19, 2016 (edited) He asked about updates not an upgrade. There is a huge difference. Do you regularly update your version of Windows? Does the version of .NET include earlier version and do they have to be installed in order to install that version of .NET? Edited December 19, 2016 by DOS76 Quote
Slamshut71 Posted December 19, 2016 Author Posted December 19, 2016 Sorry I misspoke! I meant was I supposed to update windows 7 ? If I'm not mistaken currently Microsoft isn't supporting windows 7 updates anymore. I could be wrong though .could it be the fact that I did a system restore to factory settings ? Quote
DOS76 Posted December 19, 2016 Posted December 19, 2016 (edited) Are you on Regular Windows 7 and not SP1 if so you should update to the Service Pack. Windows 7 SP1 will continue to receive security updates and and redistributable packs until 2020 Edited December 19, 2016 by DOS76 Quote
massticles Posted December 19, 2016 Posted December 19, 2016 Yes, make sure your win 7 install is currently up to date. Only windows versions previous to 7 are no longer supported by MS. 1 hour ago, Slamshut71 said: Sorry I misspoke! I meant was I supposed to update windows 7 ?

DOS76 Posted December 19, 2016 Posted December 19, 2016 (edited) Windows 7 is no longer supported unless you have the service pack Vista with SP2 is supported until April 11th 2017 Edited December 19, 2016 by DOS76 Quote
Slamshut71 Posted December 21, 2016 Author Posted December 21, 2016 Ok I found the previous version before the update .I think the update needs to be tweaked to respond better to older pcs woth windows 7 mine is about 5 years old so I'll just go with version 4.3 but the problem I'm having now is that when I try to drag the zipped roms I have or even the ones I've opened I'm getting an error saying they are too big or are to far away ( scratching head ) Quote
SentaiBrad Posted December 23, 2016 Posted December 23, 2016 You're trying to use LaunchBox 4.3? We can not help or support for older versions of LaunchBox really, so you will be completely on your own. Quote
