SAN HQ on Windows 10 Support
Any idea when the SAN HQ installer will be patched to support Windows 10? Right now it won't install because it thinks that .Net 4.5 is not installed, when it comes with Windows 10 by default. Guessing the installer is just not configured to detect it properly. Thanks.

I figured out a work around for this. Install SanHQ 2.6 on your windows 10 machine then when it opens it will say the version is out of date and it will upgrade. The installer located on the server does not check for .NET 4.5.

I installed 2.6 and tried to let it update, but that didn't work for me - it never prompted for an update. What I did was opened the installer file with 7Zip, then browsed to the .\.rsrc\FILE directory. The largest file in there was 68MB, named "40008". I extracted that and renamed it to SANHQInstall.exe, to match the file that is contained in the Program Files directory for a SanHQ installation. Ran that, the installation worked like a charm and didn't check for .Net! I uninstalled SanHQ completely and tried from a clean install and it worked that way as well.
Not an elegant solution, but it should work until Dell can release a patched version.

I think it's related to .net framework 4.5 that I can't install on Windows 10
please make a patch, it's really annoying not being able to use it from my desktop instead of logging into W2k8 R2 server every time
thanks

On windows 10 if you run the installer in compatibility mode for windows 8 it will recognize that a newer version of the .NET framework is installed and will continue with the installation without any problems. I just had to deal with this same issue.

Just dealt with this on Windows 7. Ridiculous to have to rename a file to trick it into installing, but hey, it worked!
