Master Emulator on Windows 8.1 python exception

[Robert Blasutig]

I'm attempting to use the Master Emulator API (2.1.8.8331) with a PCA10000 on Windows 8.1. I'm just creating an instance of the MasterEmulator and I receive a PythonException. This is targeting .NET 4 x86. x64 complains with BadImageFormatException.

Additionally, running the Master Emulator sample applications on Windows 7 works, but I get a "Operation Failed: Exception" on Windows 8.1 on application startup. I can only assume the underlying problem is probably related to Python on Windows 8.1. Any known issues here or workaround?

Argh, found it. Classic "Run as Administrator" fixes it. Both scenarios, from Visual Studio and the pre-compiled binaries. Visual Studio needs to be run as Administrator.

Good to hear you found a solution. You could mark your own post as the answer.

Looks like I cannot mark my own as the answer. I haven't earned points.
