Installing on Window XP

Microsoft have not supported Windows XP while using the Click Once installer for some time so for XP we need to take a different approach when setting up the APM Log File Analyser

Microsoft have now also stopped supporting windows XP (June 2015), from a fresh install of Windows XP the APM Log File Analyser will not execute correctly and Windows Updates no longer work.

To work on XP you must be running Service Pack SP3 and have .Net v4.0 installed, anything less an it will not run at all. If you have these installed then you can jump to Step 5.

From a fresh install of Windows XP you must install the following updates manually. ...you will have to download these files from another PC because the old I.E.v6 will not support modern day web pages. ...you will have to download the full install packages as the web installers will not work at this stage.
