Sorry to post what is probably a stupid question, but I can't get Kinovea to open up / work on my PC. I've downloaded .net framework version 4.0, have re-booted the machine and tried re-installing Kinovea and I get the following message pop up when I try and open the program...

(in a pop up box):
Kinovea.exe - .NET Framework Initialization Error

Unable to find a version of the runtime to run this application.

OK



Any ideas??

Sorry if it's a stupid question and I'm missing something obvious!!

Hum, I have never tried with .NET 4.0. I hope they didn't introduce breaking changes in the framework.

If anyone else is running .NET 4.0 please report success or failure.
I'll try to set up a machine with it (next week end probably) to try it out.
Which version of Windows are you running, Seven ?

Hi Joan,

I am running Framework 4.0 with no problems

Hum, looking up the error message yields some other cases where this may happen.
Apparently it would be coming from an issue with the .NET installation…

- Problem with Runtime in .Net 2.0:
- unable to find a version of the runtime to run this application

I think you should first list the various versions of the framework that are installed on the machine. It's not obvious that it would be the .NET 4.0 that is causing the issue. Maybe it's one of the previous one.
There is a link to a .NET Framework Verification Tool
Let us know if it detects something wrong.

Then you may uninstall all versions of the Framework and only reinstall the latest one.
If that still fails, try the solution given in the thread on MSDN forums, using the .NET Framework cleanup tool.
