It may work for awhile OR you have not used the applications that won't work in W7. You are lucky! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
secret squirrel Posted January 19, 2012 Report Share Posted January 19, 2012 Hi, I hope someone can help. I have the same non compatible issue with Windows 7. Service Pack 4 comes as a winzip file which is only useable if I buy a copy of Winzip. Is Service pack 4 available in some other format that is usable or is there some other workaround. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Installing Serrvice Pack 4 will not allow C reator 2009 to run with Windows 7. (That a big period !. There are other unzippers that are free; go to cnet.com to download oone if you want to continue to beat your head against a wall.! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbrewst Posted January 19, 2012 Report Share Posted January 19, 2012 Windows 7 should unzip that file.It will extract zip files with no third party program. Take a look here. That still doesn't belie the fact that C2009 isn't truly Win7 compatible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasskin Posted September 2, 2012 Report Share Posted September 2, 2012 I just wanted to add some info Creator 2009 will run on windows 7 I have it running now and it works just fine. I am in the process of trying to replicate the install on a second machine to verify if I am able to get it to work again I will add instructions.

Brendon Posted September 2, 2012 Report Share Posted September 2, 2012 You might get some parts to work, or even most parts, but it's not fully compatible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
