Question:
Why does my installation for ZonePro GUI Designer keep failing on Windows 10/11?
Answer:
- Press the Windows key Screenshot of the Windows key logo. on your keyboard or access the search bar, type "Windows Features", and press Enter. The Turn Windows features on or off dialog box appears.
- Select the .NET Framework 3.5 (includes .NET 2.0 and 3.0) check box, select OK, and reboot your computer if prompted.
- You do not need to select the options for Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) HTTP Activation and Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) Non-HTTP Activation

You should then be able to skip the .NET Framework 2.0 portion of the GUI Designer.
