Report error while opening after installtion

[huangyg11]

After installing the open3mod_1_0_setup.exe, I can't openging the program. The folloing picture provides the details.
I am using windows xp sp3.

The messagebox says it's not a valid win32 application.

I am afraid thats an issue of the compiler, that was used to compile open3mod. Source

This means you cannot currently use open3mod with Windows XP. @acgessler do we plan to compile it for XP?

Nevertheless i would recommend you to upgrade to a newer version of Windows, as XP is not supported by MS any more(Security Risk).

Thanks for reporting.

There has never been any testing on XP, and I'm afraid there may be reasons why it cause trouble: It seems .NET 4,5 is alltogether not supported on Windows XP, so I suspect there has been at least one other error message showing up during open3mod setup?

We will be investigating if there is an easy way of solving this. Will follow up.

Effectively a duplicate of #12.

Once we're back on 3.5, it should work on XP as well. Otherwise, please re-open as needed.
