Installation Problems

Post by jakejacobson »

I downloaded the 64 bit version of Ventity but it installed it in the Program Files (x86) directory (usually reserved for 32bit software).
Everything runs okay but it looks for the help file in the Program Files directory. This is not a big problem just a note to you to look at the
installation.

I also installed the 64 bit version. The folder holding the help file is named Ventity (beta) but the program seems to be looking for a folder named Ventity. I changed the folder name and the help system works.... so far.

Hi Richard

Thank you for the tip. It works too for the 32 version.

I had tried to do the same, but i could not find the ProgramData repertory. In fact it is read only and hidden.
To access it, i had to write down the adress in the 'look for' window. Once one accesses the ProgramData repertory it is easy to modify the name of the
Ventity (Beta) repertory into Ventity.

Best regards.

JJ

We'll fix the paths and release a new build as soon as everyone's back from the conference.

What is the URL for downloading Ventity? I signed up as an early adopter with launchrock back in Nov 2014, but do not seem to have received any download link.

Thanks,
Robert

We haven't posted it widely yet, but I'll PM it to you. You should have received a link in an email from ventity.biz - I'll check to be sure you're on the list.
