Installation problem

[josegot1]

3D Moviemaker will not install. Too bad I cannot install the trial version. After the second screen it disappears-crashes. Buying it is not a sure bet as it may do the same thing and I am out the money. They need to fix it ASAP. Windows 10 64bit OS.

Welcome to TalkGraphics.

3D Moviemaker is not a Xara product. Are you thinking of Xara's 3D Maker 7?
This was last released in 2011 and, yes, there still is a trial. If you think about it, it is a 32-bit product you are probably trying to run on a 64-bit machine. Try using Compatibility Mode.

Who needs to fix what?

Hi Acorn, I've never got Xara 3D Maker 7 to run on my new Windows 11 machine, it always crashed. Your post above was a light-bulb moment. I ran it in Compatibility mode (windows 7) and it runs a treat thanks.

Do you see any error messages before it crashes, or does it just close without any prompt?

Just which product are you asking about? The OP seems to be a fly-by Poster; I think his "ASAP" has well passed.
