It just works, same as it has always done in every other version of Windows. I didn't have to do anything special.

Very strange, I can't imagine what the problem might be. I'm very happy with Windows 8, but a lot aren't.elcabesa wrote:i just retry the installation nd not it worker

I think you need to download old Visual Basic runtime: msvbm60.dll, mscomctl.ocx and mswinsck.ocx and simply place it in the same folder with TLCV.elcabesa wrote:yes, but after i installed it it refuse to start due to his old code, it seems it need to be launched in a wow64 mode, andi I still haven't found the way.

Alternatively you can try my viewer that should work fine, but you have to compile it from sources as I haven't done a compile since long

EDIT: and I don't work on it anymore
