Install VCarve 7.0

Post by TheBarnShop »

Help ! Please. I just recieved my new CNC Shark diamond edtion.
I have a new laptop computer, Core i5 processor, 8gb memory, 750 G hard drive running Windows 8.
I'm trying to install the VCarve 7.0 software and after install it will not open.
I get a massage box that states;
"The application has failed to start because its side by side configuration is incorrect. Please
see the application log or use the command-line sxstrace.exe tool for more information."

Vectric replied to my email and said to make sure the option "run as administrator" is selected.

I tried this and it still has the same issue.
I don't know what to do next.

Try this:

Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\VCarve Pro 7.0 and find the file vcredist_x86.exe.

Right click on this file and select Run as Administrator. Allow it to run.

Restart your computer and try the install again.
