Help installing WUFI ORNL 5.3. on a windows 10 machine

Post by jrsweazey » Wed Jan 13, 2016 4:31 pm -1100

I seem to be having the same problem that boctorsa had. I'm installing WUFI ORNL 5.3. on a windows 10 machine. I extract the files, copy and paste the key in but the continue button remains grayed out. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Please see here:

[S04] Why is the „Next“ button grayed out during the installation process?
All three input fields (name, organization and license key) must exactly match the details in your e-mail for the next button to work. It’s best if you copy the details from the e-mail and paste it into these fields. Also make sure there are no extra spaces before or after your entries.

Thanks so much. I could swear this is what I did before but I tried it again and it loaded fine. Working now. Sorry

I need similar assistance with installing this version on windows 10. When opening the software I get the error about the database not found and when I click OK the software closes. The zip file sent to me only had the "Install_WUFI5.3.4.1363_wo_patch.exe" file, there was no data base file sent in the zip file. Do I need to download it from elsewhere?

WUFI ORNL 5.3 is quite outdated, not tested under Win10 and can cause problems. Further we do not support WUFI 5 any longer. It is highly recommended to use the newer version WUFI Light 6 instead.

Okay I'll give WUFI Light 6 a try, there should be a disclaimer on the ORNL 5.3 page, if it's left up...

There is:

Please note: WUFI ORNL does not run under WINDOWS 10. There is no futher development of WUFI ORNL at the moment. For testing or other non-commercial purpose of WUFI Pro please refer to WUFI Light.
