Paneling Tools Rhino 6 - Installation Problems

I have Rhino 6 updated to the latest version (6.9).
I can not install Paneling Tools “not compatible with the Rhino Installer Engine”
I have already tried with Installer Repair Utility but with no results.
Any tips?

Which version of PanelingTools are you installing? (October 11, 2018)?

Yes October 11, 2018, with no success.
After I tried with April 13, 2018 with no success again…

@brian can you help please?

@lucavsnt can you please post a screenshot of the error?
It will also be very helpful if you can share the “all the text below RECOMMENDED ACTION” in the repair utility.

I’m guessing that your download of PanelingTools is corrupt.

There should be a log file on your computer telling us what’s wrong. Here’s how to find it:

  1. Open My Computer
  2. In the address bar, paste %APPDATA%\mcneel\rhinoceros\6.0\logs and press Enter
  3. Sort the list by date
  4. Find the newest log with PanelingTools in the name
  5. Post the log here.

Thanks

Luca, what is the size of your .rhi file? Want to make sure it is not corrupted.
Here is what I have:

Seems the same…Senza%20titolo-1

This is strange. @John_Brock and @BrianJ could you please verify that you can install PanelingTools (10/11) with no problem. Check Loca’s log above to make sure you have similar Rhino version. Thanks

Thanks to everybody. Now it works! I decided to reinstall Windows (also other software had “problems”) and then Rhino. After Paneling Tools. Now I can use it!

Great.
