I'm encountering a problem when trying to install VB6 on Windows 10. I've tried several different installers and guides but no matter what, i cannot start the setup.exe
Nothing happens whenever i start it. However when i check the windows events i see that the setup quits with errorcode: 0xc0000005
I've even tried an external Installer Helper but it always happens the same way. I also cleaned up my registry before installing.
Any help is highly appreciated. Thank you in advance!
Assuming you're trying to install from a CD, you might want to try converting its content to Inno Setup. That's what solved our issues when we were installing the VB6 IDE Enterprise Edition on Windows 10.
Here's a guide on how you can do it. http://www.planetsourcecode.com/vb/scripts/ShowCode.asp?txtCodeId=74428&lngWId=1#zip ... Just click "Download code" and follow the README.txt. We used the script VB6-generic.iss
