Installing Logframer 1.2 on a Windows XP computer
I received some questions from people asking whether it is possible to install Logframer 1.2 on a Windows computer. As I designed Logframer with people in developing countries in mind, and because research shows that more than 30% of computers in most developing countries still use Windows XP, version 1.2 is still fully compatible with Windows XP.
However, you must make sure that the latest updates are in place:
- Make sure that Windows XP Service Pack 3 (SP3) is installed. Without this Service Pack, Logframer won't run. You can use Windows Update or download the service pack using this link that takes you to the site of Microsoft.
- You need to have Microsoft .NET framework 4.0 (or higher) installed on your computer. If you haven't, the installation program will try to download it from the site of Microsoft and install it on your computer. Alternatively, you can download it from the site of Microsoft using this link
Both these updates are free of charge.
If you have tried to download and install Logframer during the last couple of days, you may have encountered this warning during the installation:
The requirement to install Visual Basic powerpacks has now been removed. So if you had this problem, please try to download and install Logframer 1.2 again. This time you won't see this warning.
