Windows 10: VB5 Pro Application Setup Wizard Weirdness

Weird; could not get VB 5.0 “Application Setup Wizard” to work on my laptop (Dell 3000-3552 Windows 10 1903) but does on my old eMachine (same Win 10). Copied the “Microsoft Visual Basic 5.0” with all the wizard stuff onto jump stick then downloaded that to my laptop and it works fine! Then after removing the SanDisk jump stick the wizard stopped working!!!! Hum, reinstalled stick and “Application Setup Wizard” stared working again. This is too much for an old computer guy, so the next time I use the program I’ll try to remember my jump stick. Any thoughts? *really

Old Stuff in New Stuff; VB5 must survive.


While using really old software; like Visual Basic Pro 5.0,may not fit in the millennial mindset or the Microsoft marketing strategy; as aretired old fashion engineer and sometime software guy, Windows 10 does offersome stability and neat features I like; but, I cannot afford to buy and learn something to replace VB5. During the upgrade from Win-7 to 10 it began working okay andwhile I rarely use the ‘help’ in the VB5 editor, now in Win-10 the Help willnot work. The same problem came up when I went from a Win-XP machine to a Win-7 PC, but it was fairly east to fix. Now no matter what I do the VB5 ‘help’ willnot work – it takes me to some dumb MS page with Win-10 fixes or suggestions. Yeah, maybe a temp job at Wal-Mart will earn me some extra cash for MS to spend, but I refuse to bend to the farleft methods to drive us old guys out of the programming world.

There must be a way to overcome the Microsoft migrating to Apple marketing strategy; that is to hook people into their software then bleed them completely dry of their green. There must be a fix so I can use the VB5 help files.
