I m trying to launch PSI on Windows 10 resulted opening in notpad
( I know windows 10 is not supported but for POC purpose or dev we can install it on Windows 10)
Any one have some input on this ?
Referred below article but issue persistent.
Confused a bit but it seems that setup.vbs just opened in Notepad for edit? Sounds like a filetype association. This appears to be your issue:

Now as far as being on supported OS, I have gotten Windchill (older versions) to execute on Windchill 10 and 7 back in the day. Very convenient having Dev environment easily accessible on my laptop. The PSI might puke if they put in a check to detect non-compliant OS. I have not tried with 11.2 or higher and certainly you get no support from PTC. As the preacher said in Blazing Saddles, "Your on your own." I have gotten comfortable running in a VM on a Red Hat since it mimic test and prod very closely.
I've always had a laptop install for same purpose. Currently have 12.0 on my Windows 10 laptop.
I remember that there was some mystery getting PSI to launch and forgot now exactly how I solved it.
Installed Java (Amazon Corretto), both 1.8 and 1.11 because I'm still using DS.
Then, set Env Var's for both:
- LAX_VM C:\AmazonCorrettoJava\jdk11.0\bin\java.exe
- JAVA_HOME C:\AmazonCorrettoJava\jdk11.0
Have to launch setup.vbs from an admin command window.
Thanks for your inputs MikeLockwood & avillanueva.
Please find snap for your reference . Still I m struggling to launch PSI.
One other thought comes to mind.
Sometimes (I don't know what triggers), you have to "unblock" the zip file downloaded from PTC before extracting it. I routinely see if they are blocked now.
A second suggestion I was going to make it to install from the 12.0.0.0 media rather that from the Solutions Installer in a CPS, but it appears that you are doing that. I've seen many times that the 0.0.0 solutions installer installs on a laptop where the same from a CPS does not.
Other than that, don't know what to suggest but will think about it some more.
