If you have a previous installation using the MSIX installer, please uninstall it first. Due to restrictions with running .NET 8 applications, the MSIX option is no longer supported. If you have a previous installation using the Setup.exe installer, you can install the new version without uninstalling the old one. However, the installation will be slightly faster if the previous version is removed first. |

.NET 8 is required to create solutions to other operating platforms like Linux, and to edit displays to show on web browsers. If you receive a warning that .NET 8 is not available on your computer, you still will be able to work with Windows-only solutions and displays. To install the .NET 8, follow the link in the installer message, or you can find the .NET 8 Desktop Runtime installer from Microsoft here: https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download/dotnet/8.0. Be sure to pick the version that matches your CPU architecture, which is likely x64. (And don't pick the "SDK" or ".NET Runtime" or other versions - just the ".NET 8 Desktop Runtime") |
