I am attempting to install Setup_Sellerdeck_v18_18.1.2.0_VIWC.exe on a fresh install of Windows 11 but get the following error:

Any ideas?

It's an interesting one as the only reference I can find refers to windows pre windows 10.

I might be something Sellerdeck need to fix.

I'm afraid that did not work. I even deleted the apps in the settings screen first.

The attached is what Sellerdeck displays:

We're still in the process of testing Sellerdeck Desktop with Windows 11. So far we have tested the Access version. For that, you need to download and install Visual Studio 2005 SP1 x86 first, before running the Sellerdeck installer. Download link is here: http://download.microsoft.com/downlo...redist_x86.EXE

I'll delete my posts to save others from following them.

I see this has now gone into the knowledge base here as a pre-requisite for Sellerdeck and Windows 11 :
