View Full Version : SetupBuild 10 DE - OS Version Checking

In the Setup Requirements - Requirements tab, I have OS Version Checking
checked. I have Windows Server 2003 thru Windows Server 2016 checked.
I have a client when they run my install they get an invalid operating
system message.
When I check %WINVER%, it is coming up with 65536. When I check Common
Definitions.sbi, that value is not in the Windows Version IDs section.
What does 65536 equate to or how do I get by this without removing my OS
Version Checking?

Thanks

65536 equates to 0x10000. So in "Common Definitions.sbi" it is $WIN_10$.
Your customer has a Windows 10 machine.

You need SetupBuilder 2016 Version 10.0 Build 4920 or later with Windows 10
(Kernel version 10 "RTM") support to handle installations on Windows 10.
Are you using the latest SetupBuilder version?

Does this help?
