Trying to install the ARM64 8.2.4 version of BOINC on my snapdragon x plus laptop, but when I double click the installer, a BOINC installer box appears for just one second, and then nothing else happens.

I know I can just use the Intel compatible version, but any known issues with the ARM64 version, since It's not working for me, or some things I can try to make it work?

Thank you for the report.
Is there any chance you can run this command in the command line and send us the 'log.log' file for analysis?

boinc_8.2.6_windows_arm64.exe /l*v log.log

Please keep in mind you need to open command line in the folder with the installer or provide a full path to it.
Thank you in advance.

Thanks for the response.

I'm afraid I'm not tech savy enough to do this.

But in the meantime, I've found that the 8.2.6 version installs without issue, although with some GUI issues in Simple View, and not all projects can be added using this version.

So if anybody else has got a snapdragon laptop, please try doing what's suggested here, and provide some results.

Hoping you can fix the 8.2.4 Windows ARM64 version at some point :)

ChatGPT told me it was a known issue, so maybe you could find some more about this online somewhere.

Ah, damn. 8.2.4 really had as issue, and it was fixed in the new version. I read incorrect your previous message.
