Similar problem. XP - tells me there's an upgrade, I click on the upgrade link, it shows the download, then a illegible pop-up that vanishes instantly. The install doesn't happen.
Hi Brad and Johann,
Thank you for your messages.
Could you please clarify if you’ve already tried installing the update manually? Does the issue occur only on Windows XP machines or does it occur only on one specific machine?
Looking forward to your reply.

I only have one Windows xp Machine. I tried todo the simple upgrade, lost access to the server. I then downloaded 7.3.3.0 and tried to install, and it failed with the above message. I don't have any other windows xp machine to try on.

I think it may be related to the version of VC++ used to compile the software.

Hi Pauline,
You can add me to the list of users that cannot get the host install to an XP machine. Same results as the above responders. The Microsoft troubleshooter tool mentioned above, is for Windows 10-11.
Rolling back to 10.x.x.x solves the problem.
