The-Kiwi Posted October 28, 2020 Posted October 28, 2020 I've just downloaded the Launchbox install for Windows, and attempted to run it. I did try a local search here, and previously tried an internet search using Google, and had no hits for the specific program. Before I attempt a broad spectrum general action, I want to affirm that it's a brand new Windows setup, also. The PC has been chosen as a DOSbox platform, and has almost nothing on it, yet. Thank you in advance. Kiwi Quote
Retro808 Posted October 28, 2020 Posted October 28, 2020 If you are using a 32bit version OS LB no longer supports 32bit. You can email support@unbrokensoftware.com and advise you would need a 32bit version. Unfortunately it will be an older version. I believe it will be a version prior to 11.6 or 11.5. Quote
The-Kiwi Posted October 28, 2020 Author Posted October 28, 2020 I'll run a search on the Internet specifying that, first, since I wasn't aware of the need for a 64-bit version. Since I'm only using three GBs of RAM, I didn't figure I needed to get another, late-release OS copy. Kiwi Quote

The-Kiwi Posted October 28, 2020 Author Posted October 28, 2020 The only application I planned to run was DOSbox, but Launchbox seemed like a nice addition! Kiwi Quote

The-Kiwi Posted October 28, 2020 Author Posted October 28, 2020 (edited) The version that was already a 64-bit application was 11.3 not 11.6; 10.15 and 11.0 are both demanding NET Framework 4.8, while Windows XP tops out with 4.03 . . I'll try version 7.8 next. Still balked there. Instead of 4.8, though, it "only" demanded the 4.6 Net Framework. Kiwi Edited October 28, 2020 by The-Kiwi Added a new last sentence. Quote
