I have made 2 attempts at installing Westbury version 4.1. My OS is Windows 8.1

The first time the installation failed to run, reporting a compatibility error with my version of Windows.

I re-downloaded the installation file and tried again. This time the installation completed as I would have expected.

However, when I loaded the Loader Westbury does not appear on the list.

I have got all the others in the list. however, as far as I can recall these were installed when my OS was Windows 7.

Is this a Windows 8/8.1 issue and/or a problem with the location of the files? When installing I accepted the defaults.

When you run the installer where does it default to try and install the sim?

If you reinstall with a path of

C:/users/public/public documents/ Simsig.

You should be fine

Hello

I've now had the time to actually do this and Westbury still does not appear?

Open the loader, click "folder options", then tick all four boxes if they are not already.

Hello

Thanks for your prompt responses.

When I looked at the folder list only one was ticked. I ticked them all. Westbury still not listed.

Just in case this was an issue I closed and re-started the loader. Still no Westbury?

Do a search for one of the sims you can find and then a search for Westbury and drag it to where the others are. Do the same for the Timtables.

Thanks Peter for your suggestion.

Just for the record, someone else might come across this. When I did what you suggested I found I had 2 directories under 'Users'. One named Public Documents and one named public documents.

I found Westbury in public documents and moved this from there to Public Documents. This worked, hurrah!
