I just installed Visual Studio Community 2015 and downloaded Advanced HMI. This is my first time using either of them so I hardly know where to start. I was able to setup to talk to 2 Allen Bradley micrologix units without any problems. then after adding several components I started getting this error: An error occurred while signing: The specified executable is not a valid application for this OS platform.
I also got an error about signtool.exe not being in a folder that was label V7 as if it were expecting windows 7? I did install signtool.exe and copied it to that folder but my problem with the 'os platform' error continues.
I am given the option to run the last successful build and it works fine but I can't find any differences.
Any help is much appreciated.
thanks,
mark

Did you by any chance use Publish?
-
Yes I did and then read that that's a no no. So I reinstalled Advanced HMI and it was ok again for a little while. Not sure what's triggering this error.
I failed to say that I'm running windows 10. Is that a problem? I did find a post last night that said only use XP or Windows 7. Is that right?

Windows 10 is not a problem. It is what I have been exclusively using for about 6 months now. The only time I have seen the signing tool error was with the Publish.
Check this one thing:
- In Solution Explorer, right click the AdvancedHMI project and select Properties
- Select the Signing tab
- Make sure neither of those check boxes are selected

Thank you for the very quick reply. Sign the assembly was checked. Everything is working fine. Thank you very much!
