Cannot make a windows standalone on Ventura/Mac Mini

Post by dunbarx » Wed May 10, 2023 3:35 pm

I got a new Mac Mini a month ago. Lovely. Working with LC on it. Lovely.

I tried to make a windows standalone from the same project I have for years. In the Applications Settings I cannot select the Windows pane. It is essentially disabled, and looks like it.

In fact, I cannot select any pane except the Mac one. The Mac standalone proceeds as usual, but there is nothing done on the Windows side.

I made a brand new stack. Same issue; only the Mac pane is accessible.

Before I put the splash stack and the mainStack on a thumb drive and reload them back on my old iMac to make the new standalone, is it me or Ventura?

Which deployment platforms have you paid for?

Richmond.

Hmmm. The same ones I did last week and last year, but I will check. Is a new OS not automatically folded into the license I already have?

Richmond.

I have both the Indy and Starter licenses, and they all include Windows. Using LC 9.6.9.

This simply happened the first time I tried to make a Windows standalone on this new machine. Mac standalones work just fine.

Thumb drive? Instead of "Develop here, publish everywhere" I have "Develop here, bring files to old Mac, publish everywhere"

Does not seem terribly modern...

I actually first noticed this when I tried to send CAsba a Windows standalone so he could open a stack I posted. Then I discovered that only the Mac pane is accessible.

Hmmm.

61 views, and not one reply in a whole day.

Hmph.

Anyway, the issue is solved by reLicensing LC itself. I still do not know if it was migration from my old machine to a new one, though I suspect so, or Ventura or the machine itself. Anyway, keep this in mind...
