Why can't I run the ADINA 64-bit Windows program on my 64-bit Windows PC?

Answer:

To run ADINA 8.6 and later versions on 64-bit Windows, you need to first run the Microsoft C++ 2005 SP1 Redistributable package if the machine does not have Microsoft C++ 2005 SP1 installed.

After ADINA has been installed, the package may be found in the \Microsoft subfolder. For example, if you installed ADINA in the folder C:\ADINA86, the full path to the package is

C:\ADINA86\Microsoft\vcredist_x64.exe

You can also download the package from the Microsoft web site.
