Sleepyhead will not run Win 10 - Sleeprider - 08-22-2017 My version of Sleepyhead ran flawlessly for year, and the new version since I upgraded from a built Beta version. Now when I attempt to execute SH Broken GL or the regular executable, I get a brief disk working indication from Windows and nothing happens. I need to figure out what is crashing. I have uninstalled and reinstalled numerous times. I have run the maintenance tool and am at the end of what I know to do. Intel Core i7-6500U Ram 12 GB Win 10 v. 1703 64 bit 1000 GB Storage at 35%. Paging Crimson Nape to the white courtesy phone. RE: Sleepyhead will not run Win 10 - bighopper - 08-22-2017 Did you try right click on Sleepyhead EXE & selecting 'Run As Administrator' it might work. I am running the same WIN 10 verision & similar CPU etc & have no trouble. RE: Sleepyhead will not run Win 10 - Sleeprider - 08-22-2017 I have attempted to run as Administrator with no change in response. RE: Sleepyhead will not run Win 10 - Crimson Nape - 08-22-2017 Red is in the building. . . It's version 1703 that's the bad boy. The way I got it working was to perform the following steps in the order I list:
Optional: Right-click on SleepyHead.exe->Properties->Comparability-> Select: Windows 7 RE: Sleepyhead will not run Win 10 - Sleeprider - 08-22-2017 Added all .NET and ran appwiz.cpl. Everything is fully implemented (I actually did this last week when you posted this). Ran compatibility...no dice. I might have to rely on the desktop for SH where it still works. RE: Sleepyhead will not run Win 10 - TBMx - 08-22-2017 could you please check, which version of the "Microsoft Visual C++ [year] Redistributables" you have installed? (I have 2008, 2010, 2012, 2013 and 2015 both in x86 and x64 - and SH is working fine for me on the creators update ... but please don't ask me which versions SH in the end really needs^^ - VS 2013 and maybe 2010 might be a good guess - both in x86 AND x64) could you please also verify or double check that your graphics driver is up to date? (maybe just reinstall the latest version if it is no problem! - but don't mess around with a (so far) working but no longer supported graphics card!) RE: Sleepyhead will not run Win 10 - Sleeprider - 08-22-2017 TBMx, where do I find the installed versions? RE: Sleepyhead will not run Win 10 - TBMx - 08-22-2017 well ... might be called a little different in the us-version: open the settings ("start" - the icon that looks like a mechinal wheel) - there should be a point "apps" (the 5th maybe? has an icon similar to a listing) there under "apps & features" scroll down a bit until you see a search field ... type in "visual c" ... everything should be listed under that. RE: Sleepyhead will not run Win 10 - Crimson Nape - 08-22-2017 Sleeprider, Am I correct in understanding that SH runs if it is on the Desktop? If so, it's either a permission or ownership issue. Please advise if I read your post correctly. To check what versions of VC++, go to Control Panel and Uninstall Program (I can't remembrer W10's name) look for Microsoft Visual C++ 20xx.

I suppose you can type that into Cortana also. I have her shut off so I can't test. Alternate is press Windows key +R and type in appwiz.cpl SH normally installs into Program Files (x86) for 64-bit windows. I didn't have to change permissions but I'm not storing my data folder there either. |
