Installing archive version on a new PC

Post by stone28 »

Hi,

I'm trying to move my old BlueIris (5.4.7.11), to a newer PC.

I've found the archive version and installed fresh Windows (first 10 then 11) and tried to install the file. However I'm getting errors (on both Windows versions):

- mfc140u.dll not found
- VCRUNTIME140_1.dll not found
- VCRUNTIME140.dll not found

What I need to do? I really need to move it to a bit more powerful machine which I've already bought.

;-(

Windows updates seem to be up to date as well.

Any help is really appreciated.

Thank you.

Apologise. You are right it's all there.

However, I've sorted it out in a bit different way so want to show it here for others in the future.

I installed the latest version of Blue Iris from the official website. This installed automatically all necessary libraries (ASP.Net, C++ and all that), after it was successfully installed, you need to start the software so it initiates everything and the Blu Iris Evaluation version starts. you can now close it down and install your archive version on top of that. It will overwrite the latest version with your archive one.

Done.

Regards,
Radek
