I would like to copy the Robocopy.exe file from a Windows 8.1 system and run it on a Windows 7 PC. Both PC's are running the 64bit variant of their respective OS. Is this possible in any way?
At present I just get the error that it "is not a valid Win32 application".
The reason I wish to run it is because the newer version has the /J switch.
This doesn't work. You can't run programs from a newer Windows version in an older Windows version. A you already noticed you get the is not a valid Win32 application error because the new exe is compiled for the higher Windows version (You can see this in Depends.exe under OS Ver).

so recently I have created a program in dart and compiled that program to exe file on my windows10 machine. Using dart compile exe main.dart and then main.exe is generated, but the problem is when I try to run this script on different version of windows like windows 11, windows server 2016 or windows server 2012. It didn't seem to run the program.
Note that actually there is no folder missing, still it is giving FileSystemException but only for windows server 2012, windows 11, and windows server 2016 not for windows 10.
I am only saying is that why is this error not occurred in windows 10 my guess is because I created the binary in windows 10.
I have searched about this but couldn't find a way is there is any way I can compile this binary, so it works in all version of windows? Or like dart compile exe --windows11 for windows 11.
Does dart only compile for Windows version specific binary, not for general win32 APIs?
I am trying to install Git-2.38.0-64-bit.exe on my Windows 10 Laptop. It immediately shows the error message "This program requires Windows service pack 1 or later."
I am running Windows 10 v. 21H1 Build 19043.2130. I am running Windows updates all the time, so this should be a quite current version. And I thought service packs were a thing of Windows 7.
So what should I do to be able to install that Git?
Your Windows 10 is officially supported by Git For Windows
Try and:
uncompress the portable archive PortableGit-2.38.0-64-bit.7z.exe in C:\Git
set a simplified path in a CMD:
set PATH=C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem;C:\WINDOWS\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\
set "GH=C:\Git"
set "PATH=%GH%\bin;%GH%\cmd;%GH%\usr\bin;%GH%\mingw64\bin;%GH%\mingw64\libexec\git-core;%PATH%"
Check that Git is working in that CMD session, starting with git version.
I am trying to build windows app using flutter. After successful build i have added msvcp140.dll, vcruntime140.dll, vcruntime140_1.dll as instructed. but still in some windows 10 and on all windows 7 machine it is crashing. Any suggestion what to do?
My release tree looks like follows:
build -> windows -> runner -> release
Data(Folder)
plugin(Folder)
bitsdojo_window_windows_plugin.lib
connectivity_plus_windows_plugin.dll
dart_vlc_plugin.dll
desktop_window_plugin.dll
flutter_windows.dll
msvcp140.dll
vcruntime140.dll
vcruntime140_1.dll
libvlc.dll
libvlccore.dll
App.exe
psg.exp
psg.lib
webview_windows_plugin.dll
WebView2Loader.dll
bitsdojo_window doesn't support all the versions of Windows that Flutter does. It unconditionally links against APIs that are only present in newer versions of Windows 10.
so the new windows subsystem (2019 Windows 10 April Release) for Linux is out and my ubuntu subsystem was upgraded.
I'm supposed to be able to open the Linux folder in my windows explorer but I'm not getting the correct folders when I run the command.
falieson#firefly:~$ explorer.exe ~/
Opens the windows user's My Documents folder.
falieson#firefly:~$ explorer.exe .
Opens C:\Windows\System32
My only guess is that when I did the windows install for GitHub desktop and opted into a Linux-ification of my shell it borked this upgrade from Windows.
Thanks for your ideas to resolve this.
This is currently not possible as mentioned in JosefZ comment.
If you have the latest Windows Insider Preview, or you can wait until the next Windows release, that changes as described in the WSL Blog
When I try to execute the installer, it starts "Extracting Bundled Java SDK ..." and then fails with "Error: Could not find the required version of the Java(TM) 2 Runrime Environment in '(null)'.".
What can I do? The OS is a Windows 7 Ultimate (just installed), virtualized with KVM under an Ubuntu 13.10.
Firefox and LibreOffice could be installed without any problem.
The pre requisite for JavaEE sdk7 installer is to have Jdk 7. So make sure, your environment variable path is pointing to JDK7\bin folder. And check java -version in command prompt, it should show you jdk 7 is current version in your system.
If both of the above are correct and it still doesn't work, then donot double click on the exe file directly, install it from command prompt, by giving location for JRE7 and
helping the installer to find jar files of JRE7, see below:
D:\installables>java_ee_sdk-7-jdk7-windows-x64.exe -j "C:\
Program Files\Java\jre7"
I had same problem, but this worked for me.
