Problems Starting JTCS

[Von Dondo]

Greetings all, 

My older PC died, so I downloaded JTCS to another PC using Windows 10.  I was able to download the original file without any issues, and it runs fine, but when I upload the updated/patched version from 2014 from Matrix Games, it won't start or work.  When I scroll over the pop-up menu, it "squelches" if I roll over any option.  But when I hit any of the games, nothing happens and it just sits there.  I've reached out to Matrix for technical support, but wasn't sure if anyone here has experienced similar issues and knows of a fix.  Any help would be appreciated!

Hey Von,

Do you have the C++ 2008 Redistributable package installed?

Here is a blog about it over at Matrix.

I went from Win7 to Win10 back in June and the newer game CSME ran OK. But I had to download the C++ before JTCS would run. Make sure you have the right version for your machine either 32 or 64 bit.

Thanks so much! I'll give that a try.
