Windows 10
I know that there are problems with windows 10, but I bought a new awe sum machine that has windows 10 and cant even install the trial version of 18 on it. Does anyone have a fix? It wont even run the installation portion of the program.

Thanks
PJ

That's a rare problem. To make sure the installer itself is not corrupt, re-download DataCAD 18 from the following link.

Reboot your computer then try to install DataCAD 18 again.

Make sure you are not installing to "program files" and you may need to right click the install program and select "run as administrator"
