Tried ‘Run as administrator’ – same result. Also tried to uninstall launcher, both by double-clicking ‘uninstall.exe’ and via Windows settings menu. Nothing happens. It really is broken.

Try running the launcher as administrator. It may not help, but I recall this was a problem not long ago.

I then tried the Pharo Launcher, which I have never used before. I installed the template for Pharo 6.1 (stable) and tried to launch it. The launcher window closed, and nothing happened. The Task Manager confirms that it is not running invisibly in the background. So for me the launcher is not working, though the standalone version is fine. I am using Windows 10 with all recent updates, on a 4GB machine with Intel Core i3 processor.

So I had to see for myself. I booted my Mac mini into Windows 7 Ultimate (using Boot Camp), downloaded and installed Pharo Launcher. That person was indeed correct. The Windows version of Pharo is badly broken. I created images for Pharo 5.0, 6.1, and 7.0, and all three refused to open (presumably, they just crash). Am I missing something? What am I doing wrong? -- Sent from: http://forum.world.st/Pharo-Smalltalk-Users-f1310670.html
