I Think I'm finally done
I Think I'm finally done
(OP)
I installed Windows 10 last week. I've clicked on Mathcad 14 a couple of times and got nothing. No error. No pop up. Nothing. When I go into file manager and click on the .exe I get "The application failed to start because its side-by-side configuration is incorrect". Then I ran the uninstall and got about a dozen "failed to de-register" messages. Then I tried to do a clean install and got the same files marked "failed to register" and then nothing.
At PTC you can't even search their knowledge base without a maintenance licence.
I'm getting pretty frustrated with this whole thing so I looked for a way to upgrade to MathCAD 15. No joy even finding that on PTC's pretty (bu worthless) site. I sent sales an e-mail, but the way the rest of this process has gone I don't have very high hopes.
Does anyone know of alternate software that can read my several hundred MathCad files and deals competently with units?

suggests that there is nothing that does everything you want.
SMath might be the best bet, but I don't know if it will read Mathcad files.

As for reinstalling M14, you'd probably need to go into the registry and manually delete anything related to Mathcad. This was a favorite fallback for Mathcad 13 and earlier.
