Watchtower Library on DVD

[TRUTH04]

Please someone should help me instore this wtlib. After downloading the file into my system, I copied about six items (wtlib content) into a folder. I now ran WTLsetup, it rather asked if i wanted to completely remove Watchtower Library from my system. That was a strange question to me. If i press "no", it will stop. If i press "yes" it will wipe the content off my system. I also noticed that after the copying to a folder, the items inside the folder didnt increase to ten as I see in my 2015 wtlib raw file.

 

Can someone help? Is there anything i didnt do well?

The WT LIB 2016 installed to C:\Program Files (x86)\Watchtower\Watchtower Library

 

If you right click on the folder and select properties you will get:

1.57 GB (1,688,954,547 bytes)

988 Files, 402 Folders

 

My installation didn't result in removing WT LIB 2015 from my system.

 

BTW I'm using windows 10.

Which windows version are you using?

The readme.txt suggests "Start Watchtower Library with the option in Windows 7 (or Vista) to "run as administrator." "

 

Maybe you can try this.

Where can I get the "run as administrator"?

Right-click on wtlsetup.exe.

 

"run ad administrator" should be one of the options

There is no such option. What I have here are:

autorun

autorun

Readme

SystemInfo

WTLsetup

That's all, no ".exe" there.

WTLsetup should be the exe file.

 

You did not enable the option to show the file extensions.

Please help me. I finally instored it, but when I want to launch it, it gave me this message:

"Watchtower Lib data files cannot be accessed. Please ensure that the necessary media is accessed and try again".

How will I do this?

Besides these five files you noted:

 

autorun
autorun
Readme
SystemInfo
WTLsetup

 

There should also be one folder:

 

"rs_data"

 

If it isn't there, then the original 2016WTL zip file did not extract completely. Try extracting it again,

can i have the link too. thank you very much in advance.

I am re-extracting it. Its asking me a question while copying, it says "do you want to copy this folder without encryption"

Should I skip or click "yes"?

click "yes"

 

Once you have all files and the rs_data folder, I would uninstall the WTL you just installed and then run setup again. I don't know of a way to just add the data folder. Maybe William does.

Well spotted Chuck. I missed seeing that rs_data was missing.

Wow, a lot of work with this "send to me too, please", isn't it?

Thank you for your hard work!

Tried updating my Watchtower LIbrary 2015 (build 6421) which updated to that build in July 2015 - but get the same old tired "No internet connection" message when I try to update.  Guess I'll have to file through 9 pages of this thread to see if anyone has a solution or if I should just wait till July to see if I can update again.

Will this run on an XP OS?

Will it run on a Mac OS?

 

If so, I would sure appreciate the link. 

[shali]

By the way. was it the Watchtower Library 2014 that came on DVD that updates or is it Watchtower Library 2015?  I'm thinking it's 2015 but I can't find my CD anywhere and I'm pretty sure I didn't borrow one.

[Qapla]

It was 2015

 

Perhaps you should just request the 2016 link - it works just fine

It doesn't work on XP OS. Somebody can help you installing it on a Mac OS.

You can always install Ubuntu to run alongside windows and use Ubuntu OS for the 2016 Library.  Ubuntu is a Linux OS

I'd be glad to receive a PM with a link to either an ISO or a ZIP of the DVD - I have to install by USB anyway

Remember me too, please!
