Title: Re: Can't run the .exe (windows 7 64 bit) [License problem -- solved]
Post by: RGEGuitar on October 09, 2011, 12:31:21 pm

Having had to reformat my XP and Windows 7 64bit computers recently and reinstalling MC 16, the newest version on both computers. The XP MC works great with no problems running the .exe key. On the other hand the Windows 7  64bit tells me that the .exe is not compatible with my version of windows. Now before reformatting the windows 7 computer, MC 16 was installed and working fine and registered fine. I'm using up my registration codes trying to figure this out....help please

Thanks in Advance

This sounds like the bug in one of the browsers that renames the Install Key as an exe.  It should be a .mjr file.  Try renaming it.
