ProgeCAD 2018 Installer, Windows version is not compatible

Post by gcspark »

Hello to everyone,
I'm asking your help with a problem occurred during the installation of ProgeCAD 2018 Professional.
I'm using Wine Stable 3.0 on macOS Sierra.
Basically when I double-click the .exe I can download ProgeCAD 64-bit installation files without any problems, but when it comes to click on "Install" button (the big blue one) an error message is displayed: "Operating system not compatible. This program version is compatible with Windows Vista, 7, 8, 8.1, 10. For more info visit http://www.progesoft.com" and installation doesn't continue.
I tried changing Windows version to Windows 10 in winecfg (as well as the others compatible versions listed above) and I also tried download and installing ProgeCAD 32-bit, but I get the same error.
The program can be downloaded from here http://www.progesoft.com/it/download/pr ... ofessional .
I attach a screenshot of the error (in Italian).
Thank you for help in advance.

p.s sorry for my English but I'm not mother-tongue.

Hi, I opened a bugreport here: https://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-b ... 86787.html
Has a rather easy fix, but first has to get into new release accepted

In the meanwhile the following works too (at least it did for me):

Copy a ntdll.dll from windows 7 over the placeholder fakedll in ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32/ntdll.dll (i tested 32bit installer)

(DON`T set ntdll to native!)
Good luck
