I have also found one interesting article that describes how to install VB6 in Windows 10 in the Raimond. CC Blog:. As you can see from the title, the author gives us an advice how to avoid installing the needless VM for Java. While you can run VB6 in Windows 8. Then remote desktop to your virtual machine and you're good to go. Also, when windows 9, 10 and 11 arrive, your virtual machine can be transferred over to them or to a new PC all without breaking your VB6 development environment.

Need to support some old projects directly in the newest OS, not in a virtual machine. TecMan TecMan 2, 2 2 gold badges 28 28 silver badges 60 60 bronze badges. I need to do that directly in Windows 8. I need to install SP6, but the resources tell me nothing how to do that. What's wrong with installing the IDE as well?
Add a comment. Active Oldest Votes. Downloaded and unpacked this Vs6sp6. Does it actually work? Can you run the IDE, build an application and run it? Jonathon, yes, it really works. At least, I could compile the exe and OCX of my real-world projects without any problems.
Don't forget to set the 'Run as administrator' checkbox for the VB6 shortcut in the Start menu to avoid problems with accessing the Windows registry.
I do not have vb6 installed on my Win7 x64 computer. I followed your instructions above three tries and everytime get error after installing: Setup was NOT completed successfully.
ClayNichols, what exactly trouble do you face? And I have just published a link to an article on the Raymon. CC blog as one more answer to this question. Read it. Perhaps, the recipes from that article will help you to solve your problems.
Ensure your user has administrative rights on the computer. Run the Setup. Click Next, Accept the Agreement and click Next. Enter your software key, name and company name. Click Next. Update Microsoft Virtual Machine for Java. Note message shown twice. What do I need to do? I had just upgraded Windows over the years from 98 so never needed to reinstall VB6.
Thank you so much, this was really helpful. Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!! I do not even know how I ended up here, however I thought this submit was good. It gives me error message saying the. I can make an exe file but not the package. Can you help me? I wanted to take the time to say, thank you very much for this great article. I am able to open VB6 on server R2. Great post! We are linking to this particularly great content on our website. Keep up the good writing.
Hi there, I desire to subscribe for this website to obtain most up-to-date updates, thus where can i do it please assist. With these instructions, I was able to successfully install VB6 on a Windows Server 64 bit machine and debug code. I just have one question…. How the heck were able to pinpoint these items? Installed as suggested by you, but while opening no errors but to run simple vb program the Visual Basic IDE crashes. Closes by itself on pressuring run button.
Pls suggest me what to do. This worked for me too on bit Windows 10 Enterprise Version Seriously, awesome. This procedure allowed me to install VC6 SP6 on a Windows 7 Professional machine which then fixed several problems including: 1 cant open a file 2 cant add files to project. Thank you!!! Many thanks for your instructions.
Got past the obstacles eventually. I just wonder if it is possible to revisit the setup to change back to the default settings now that the program functions? I am using Windows 10 ver Using the instructions on this page I was finally able to get V6 Enterprise installed. I was ask to restart to complete setup.
I first tried compatibility mode and then later I was ask if it installed correctly. I answered Yes. I did not try and register over the web because I registered many years ago and guessed the registeration would fail.
Many thanks for this website. I probably would not have thought of unchecking the ADO. Anyone have any suggestions? In point where you uncheck the data components proceeds through the screens, but then recursively repeats the three screens. I finally just clicked Ok and the install started. At the end I got a error saying it failed to self-register a. DLL file. I have 2 applications, home use, which require VB6.
Is there anyway after installing without ADO to register that component manually? I can do everything else I want with Linux. Unfortunately this only works if you run setup. If you deinstall vb6 and remove all files. Then start setup. Only after 2nd try it will goes to the end. Thank you for a very clear and helpful instruction set. It has been of great help to me.
My appreciation to your contributions. Excellent article! Thank you. Thanks for the article I have met with an issue. All my installation files are in one folder and not on CDs. After choosing custom option,the installer is asking for visual studio 6. Can nyone help? Thank you in advance. How can we un-check the options causing the not-responding hang-up during install? Thanks for the simple and clear instructions.
I succeeded in installing on Server R2 as well. This was a life saver, after multiple futile attempts. Thanks from me too! I have followed the instruction carefully but still I always encounter this at the end. I am installing it in Windows Please help.
If you need ADO, etc. Reboot your system and you are done! This is worked for me once, Kudos. But then I had to re-install it. Even after copying msjava. Can anyone suggest me what to do? Maybe something with registry? I had this problem too. Thanks a lot. The article has been very useful and you have explained things in great details. VB6 installs and runs OK on the Windows 10 technical preview. The future looks promising for VB6 programming.
Vote for an updated Visual Basic 6 visualstudio. At some point I will migrate to vb. Thanks raymond. This is a great discovery. Nice hack. For now, I want to thank you as this will really help me. Thank you once again. Hey Raymond ….. Well done!
I have tons of VB6 code which may need to be compiled in the future, who knows… Good to know there is a way to make it work on win7! Great discovery. You always find ways to get rid of stuff.
