Windows 7 Problems - "Unable to Open Project" Upon Creating a new project. - RESOLVED

Hi All,

I've just installed Windows 7 onto our new PC, and have installed Torque Game Builder (1.7.4 and 1.7.5, not at the same time but tried twice) and followed up by installing Release build of iTorque 2D 1.4.

I've put our project from our old PC running XP, which was a 1.4 project (and which works fine) and copied it over to the Windows 7 PC. If you try to load the project if comes up with "Unable to Open Project" and each time you try to load the project the same happens.

What is even stranger is that if you Create a New project on the Windows 7 iTorque 1.4, it gives the same error ... "Unable to Open Project" straight after you click the "create project" button.

Does anyone have any solutions? I've tried installing both TGB and iTGB 3 times now and the same thing happens.

Thanks.

The real solution here is to change the directory that iTorque is installing. Windows Vista and Windows 7 both have heavy restrictions on who can write to Programs Files and Programs Files(x86) folders. don't install there. Create a new folder like "C:/iTorque_1_5/" and install the tool there. Then you should be able to run it normally.
