Microsoft does not stop to wonder me. You have just downloaded the "last" version of their packet from
their own site, and their system reports that it can not install it as it is too old...

Perhaps you should try to reinstall this... You need 2010 revision... Try please to uninstall it and install it again...

If you will be not able to reinstall it - try to unpack this archive content into the "Program Files\OctaneServer" folder.

I just checked programs in control panel and found out the 2010 redistro is already installed so I uninstalled it then reboot and re-install it and reboot and still no luck.

Great job Jim. The plug-in is looking great.
Do you have an ETA for LiveDB/Macro integration? I'm working on a project that I started with the standalone, where I saved a lot of the materials as macros. I'm trying to decide if I should just redo them as new Octane nodes in Blender or wait.

And when do you get this error, when run the OctaneServer, or the Blender itself?..

If this error pops up when you start Blender - install this update:

I was able to get the Octane logo in the system trey but when I try to run Blender that's when I get the error message.
