Please note:

• The C64 Archive requires .NET Framework 4.0 and MS Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Pack (VCRedist2010), which will be installed if necessary.

• If you encounter startup problems after installation, this may be due to the VCRedist2010 not being installed. It can be downloaded here:

  Win64: Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Pack 64 Bit (exe-File: 9,80 MB)

  Win32: Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Pack 32 Bit (exe-file: 8,57 MB)

• Databases that were started with version 4.5 can no longer be opened with earlier versions.
