Installation problem

I downloaded latest version of Vensim 9.4.0 but I can't install it because I am getting this error (see attachment).

Maintenance is valid until May, 2024.
My Visa was charged for the maintenance.

Re: Multiple versions, GUI stuck, transfer functions

On the attached screenshot I was trying to show that the old graphics was permanent, regardless of the skin that I have selected (old or new). I traced this problem to Vensim messing up Windows Registry. If you want to repeat this bug then switch old-new-old let say 20 times. However, I managed to r...

Re: What improvements would you like to see in Vensim?

After switching Vensim few times from v9 to v8 and back, Vensim is now stack permanently in old version regardless of the GUI I select. I wish switching would work flawlessly but I prefer old version of Vensim because it has functionalities that were removed in v9. The changes that I would like to s...

Re: Population Model

I have no interest in building realistic Population Models but if I would have to build one then I would include government as the controlling entity. Governments develop long term demographic forecasts and they use them to control population size through social policies (e.g. from ‘draconian rule o...
