Hi all. Writing my first message i will greet all members, at first.
I downloaded LB Workshop but i have a problem when trying to install it. double clicking setup.exe shows a message "some system files are out of date. Click to restart windows" (or some). I click OK , the system restart but the same message and problems occur. How can i resolve ?
Thanks all !
P.S. I have Win XP

Please see the announcement that is pinned to the top of this board. LBWorkshop is no longer supported because it does not work reliably on recent versions of Windows. This is also stated on the LBW pages on my site.
It works for me on XP.
Sorry, but I no longer support it because I have tried unsuccessfully to fix such problems for a long time.

Thank you for your response. I read it, but I thought there was an easy way (like a simple install pack) to bypass the problem as you wrote to another user (November 2008). Thanks anyway .

I am a long term user of LBWorkshop and have used it on Win98 & XP without problems. When MS announced that XP support was ending I tried to install it on my Win7 machines and encountered some of the same problems as described by others. I was able to get it to work by doing the following:
1) Run the install PGM with compatibility as XP and also as Administrator.
2) Do the same for LBWorkshop.exe
3) Do the same for Liberty.exe
4) Do the same for any PGMs you create.
To do this, right-click on the exe module and select Properties. On Properties, select the compatibility tab and make the selections.
I have been using it all winter and have had no recurrence of the problem unless I mistakenly tried to run LBWorkshop when I already had a copy running.

Hi, I've got WinXP with all the latest updates, and I also get the same error as Antony - but going through the cycle of supposedly installing the updates and then restarting just loops round and does the same thing again. Because I'm already running XP I don't have the option to run in 'XP compatibility mode', and I've tried NT4 and Win2000 compatibility modes - no difference.
Any other suggestions?
Alyce, any chance of releasing the source code so that others may have a go at fixing this bug?
