I downloaded Mathcad prime 5.0 via the link provided after purchase. When I doubleclick setup.exe (after unpacking), I got prompt "Do you want to allow changes to your disc?", I press "Yes" and the window closes and nothing happens. I have Win 10 and MS framework installed. Any advice?

    Hi @MM_9554404,

     

    Try below suggestions:

    1. Make sure you have Microsoft .NET Framework 4.7.2 installed on your machine. (If not already installed use this link https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4054530/microsoft-net-framework-4-7-2-offline-installer-for-windows to install the same)
    2. Disable Anti-Virus if there is any on your machine
    3. Run setup.exe as Administrator

    You may even try running PrimeWixInstaller_64bit.msi from the ptcsh0 folder of installer and see if it helps.

     

    Let me know if problem still persists.

     

    Regards,

    Rahul
