Windows 8 Compatibility Follow

BarTender 10.0 SR1 can be installed on Windows 8 with the following workarounds:

1. Install .NET 3.5 SP2 manually instead of letting the installer install it
2. Now install BarTender 10.0
3. When setting up the system database, do not install the bundled SQL Server Express 2005. This version is not compatible with Windows 8. Instead, download and install SQL Server Express 2010 R2, and use that for the system database.

We will have full Windows 8 compatibility, out of the box, when BarTender v10.0 SR2 is released in the non to distant future.

I'm running BarTender 8.01 successfully under Windows 7 - will it still work if I upgrade to Windows 8? Is there anything I have to do?

Strictly speaking BarTender v8.01 is not Windows 7 compatible, although due to its age we have never done any formal testing on it. You use it at you own risk. The same is true for Windows 8. It might well work to your satisfaction, but we do not make any guarantees and we will not be testing this version on it.

[size="2"]By way of an update, I've now been using BarTender 8.01 with Windows 8 for 3 months, and with Windows 7 for a good 15 months before that. Seems to be okay![/size]

...aaaand same with Windows 8.1...

Scott,

 

Are you attempting to install the most recent Service Release of BT 10.0? It can be downloaded from here: http://www.bartenderbarcodesoftware.com/label-software/fixes_100.aspx

Ive just downloaded the latest SR for BT10 from the main site to be hit with the same error, any thoughts?

can anyone help with this issue??

 

it is becoming a large problem for the logistical solutions are trying to put in place and i would rather not redevelop the solution with another Barcode SDK

 

Cheers,

Scott

Hello Scott,

 

Have you logged on Windows under a Windows account with enough permission? Please download the Full Download installation instead of the Web installer.

The error

indicates that there seems to be a problem with your .NET Framework installation. You will need to repair it.
