Le Teace Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 Has anybody had any success with a DWF viewer for use on a Windows 7 64 bit PC ? I have Design Review 2010 working OK on a 32 bit Windows 7 PC but can not get it working on a 64 bit laptop with Windows 7. Has anyone tried the XP mode of W7 to get around this ?

ReMark Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 When you say you cannot get it working does that mean it does not work at all or does it close unexpectedly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Le Teace Posted January 4, 2010 Author Share Posted January 4, 2010 When you say you cannot get it working does that mean it does not work at all or does it close unexpectedly? It has installed but won't open. I get "The application was unable to start correctly (0xc0000142). Click to close...." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tankman Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 2010 is, according to AutoDesk, supported in Win 7. At the very least, '10 is supported in Win 7 32. Not working, try XP mode (?). Certainly worth the try. Let us know how you make out. With the release of Win 7, compatibility issues have been THE topic of discussion.

tzframpton Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 How often are you needing to open and view DWF/DWFx files? Maybe a temporary fix would be to use a virtual machine running Win XP on the laptop just until there's a solution. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
