Installing Liberty BASIC on Vista and Windows 7


- StPendl StPendl Sep 6, 2007

Liberty BASIC v4.03 and lower


  1. Install Liberty BASIC to a root folder like C:\Shoptalk Systems\Liberty BASIC 4.03
    instead of C:\Program Files\Liberty BASIC 4.03
  2. Install WinHelp32 for Vista, Windows 7 and Server 2008 to make the help file work
  3. At the first run use Run as Administrator once, to be able to enter the registration key
  4. If you encounter problems with graphics, disable Aero
    (This is no more a problem, if you have the latest Windows updates and service pack installed!)

Liberty BASIC v4.04 and higher


  1. Install Liberty BASIC into the default folder C:\Program Files\Liberty BASIC 4.04
  2. The help is converted into HTML files, so there is only a need for a browser to view it
  3. At the first run use Run as Administrator once, to be able to enter the registration key
  4. On Vista and higher, the examples will be placed into C:\Users\{User Name}\AppData\Roaming\Liberty BASIC v4.04 ,
    this is where the BAK folder resides and the error.log reside too.
