GAMS Installation Error

Post by AsmaaAmer1 »

Hi,

I am trying to install GAMS on my computer. Whenever I try, a runtime error appears. I can install/uninstall any software normally.
I tried stopping the Windows Management Instrumentation and it does not work.
Does someone had the same trouble before? Do you have any suggestions how to solve it?
Is it related to comaptibility ptoblems?

Thanks,
Nikou

Hi,

This is a Windows problem that can most likely be prevented by running the installer from a command prompt with /SILENT or /VERYSILENT. There is a note on this in the documentation: https://www.gams.com/latest/docs/UG_WIN_INSTALL.html

1. Open command prompt
2. Switch to directory containing the GAMS installer
3. Run "windows_x64_64.exe /SILENT" or "windows_x64_64.exe /VERYSILENT"

Best,
Clemens
