Hello All -

I have blide v10.06.25 A and it doesn't seem to work on Windows 8.

I keep receiving a window that states "Install .NET 3.5 Framework" but fails to install, .NET 4.0 is already installed.

Is this issue fixed in later versions of BLIDE?

Thanks
-Ben

.Net 3.5 is not the same as .Net 4.0 - so you'll need to install it seperately. See here to install:

And if .net 3.5 won't install because 4.0 is already present, you may need to remove 4.0 first, then install 3.5, then re-install 4.0

For that version install .net 2.1 and it should do it

You could install 3.5 manually by going to control panel, programs and features, turn windows features on or off. There's an option for .net 3.5 in there.

Latest version were migrated to .net 4, so it should work automatically if you download latest version. However, for the 10.x versions of BLIde, .net 2.1 does it (while I recommend you to switch to latest version for performance and stability)
