Hi!

I've got installation problem on Windows 7:

"No license files ..." popup message.

Valid license file LLBLGenPro_1.license already placed into installation folder C:\Program Files (x86)\Solutions Design\LLBLGen Pro v2.6.

Then I removed installation and reinstall LLBLGen to the simple path (C:\LLBLGen\ ). Error message disappeared. The program works.

What is it?

I'm guessing this is the Windows 7 UAC folder virtualisation feature - when you try and copy a file to the Program Files it silently copies it to a folder somewhere under C:\Users\

You need to do the copy with elevated privileges (ie run Command Prompt as adminstrator) to actually copy to Program Files.

LLBLGen runs perfectly on Win 7 64bit once you actually get the license file in place...simple_smile

Thanks for the explanation, Matt.
