Phoon, just a sugg, have you tried clearing your cache, running CCleaner, log out, back in?

 

What browser are you using?

I know it shouldn't matter, but if 3.96 is there for me, it should be there for you.

No difference RND, it still downloads the 4.x version.

Just curious, does 3.96 actually work?

Any chance you can hit the link with a different browser?

Hm, FF - 4.0 / IE9 - 4.0 / Chrome : 3.5. Cleared the Cache beforehand. Strange.

Note: Never have/had such problems getting fresh versions from other vendors, so I think there may be a glitch in the store somewhere. I have sent the links Your way, Zubaz.

Only way I can get 3.5 is by Impulse.

 

I wish I had a 3.5 Pro I could stash away.

 

I can't get Impulse archives to work.

Is that 3.5 Pro Carl? If so, I might have to install Chrome and try.

I've tried IE9 and Chrome. All downloads are the 4.00.017 regardless of what pc I use to try.

I wonder, while we're at this, can we fix it so the setting to start with windows works?

RND, are you sure we are talking about DXPro? The link for DX says 3.96, the link for pro SAYS 3.5 but as we all know, that info is not correct at all.

wow, this just gets better and better....

I have 3.5 Pro installed via Impulse on my laptop. Trying to uninstall it. Seems that I have to have Impulse installed just to uninstall the old version. A complete and utter load of #$%^. 

This must be something new and stupid that gamestop has done. It never used to be like that.

now the brighter side.

The beta (3.96) seems to work ok on Win7 x64 Ultimate. I loaded up an object I created in 3.5 and at least the script editor opens with this version. It did not do so with the 4.00.017 version

The uninstallers for applications installed via Impulse have always required Impulse to uninstall.  Thats because Impulse is the installer and uninstaller and so without that there is no code to perform the uninstall.

Neil, I've uninstalled apps before via add remove programs in control panel, but...... honestly, this may have been the first time I've done it after I removed Impulse.

( Phoon salts foot, inserts in mouth for 100,000,000 th time....)

There is always Your Uninstaller Pro, or Revo Uninstaller. These will uninstall anything and take the registry entries with it.

 

Roloccolor, Gamestop has borked the Impulse Archive system and they no longer work. At least, that's what I think Zubaz said.

I tried to install one and got a dialog telling me to go to Impulsedriven.com and unlock it. IE can't load the page.

 

Makes no sense to me since it's supposed to be an offline install.
