Install VEE Pro 9.33 Issues?

I just got a new laptop with WIN10 as WIN7 is no longer being supported.
I have been using VEE Pro 9.3 from a CD on my previous machines with no issue, however, I keep getting a couple different errors trying to install the 9.33 version from Keysights' webpage.

I guess my main issue is as soon as you close the "Tip of the Day", I get an error that the VEE install is corrupted.

Might have something to do with Matlab script engine as when I do a simple x=A+B in the matlab script window.

Anyone else having issues with WIN10? Is there additional files needed outside of IO Libraries (mine is 18.1) and connection expert?

Thanks

Thank you, evidently I'm a "Standard User" on my new machine and VEE wants to be run as Administrator.

Shakin,

As I remember, if you run VEE once as administrator, then there after you don't have to.

"run as admin" would account for the Matlab error, as it is often needed in order to register the Matlab interface. As noted this is only needed once.

HOWEVER, this would not account for the BRB! That's something else and could indeed indicate a bad install. This system isn't perhaps a "home" edition is it?

Stan,

I'm running VEE 9.33 on 64 bit Windows 10 Pro. It works great. I noticed in your VEE MATLAB example you are adding two text values. Real values would perform math addition. What's BRB?

Ah. A VEE Newbie I guess. What's BRB?- well- think VEE equivalent of the BSOD

With latest revisions, the BRB is still there, just different color!

PS- for fun and games-- try running the below VEE program

LOL.. I built that up real quick just to show the error and didn't catch on to the "Text" boxes. That was unintentional.
I no longer have to run as administrator as you pointed out earlier, seems it's a 1 and done type of thing.
