CoppeliaSim Edu installation errors on Windows 10

Post by catsquito »

Hi Team,

I have a hard time installing CoppeliaSim Edu on Windows 10.


Cannot install exe file

I couldn't install CoppeliaSim 4.3.0 edu:
I downloaded CoppeliaSim_Edu_V4_3_0_Setup exe file, and double-clicked it, however below two error messages came out:
Error 1:
Image
It says:
"Setup.txt Script file not found. Setup Aborted!"

Error2:
Image
It says:
"Setup.txt Unable to save Extracted File!
The handle is invalid
Data size: 140018 Bytes
File Size: 0 bytes
Bytes Free: 533590335488 Bytes."


Can anyone help with it?

Cannot use binary package
Alternatively, because installing exe file doesn't work, I downloaded CoppeliaSim 4.3.0 binary package, but after unzipping the package, I don't know where to start: there are so many files, which one should I click to enable the CoppeliaSim interface?
I tried to double-click coppeliaSim.exe, it came out a command line window saying:
"Must construct a QApplication before QWidget!"

What does this mean?!

This software is so hard to install!
Anyone can help me?? Any installation tutorials?

update:

I don't really know how this works, but I installed CoppeliaSim Edu on a different computer, successfully!

The previous errors are most likely because the first computer I tried on belongs to the university, and it has system settings which may be very different from a personal device.

Additionally, when you do not use the installer, you will need to first run <CoppeliaSimFolder>/vcRedist/vc2019redist_x64.exe: this will install basic required items.

Cheers
