I found the installer (12,537 kb) on another site but when I run it it only installs 6 files. Do I have the wrong installer? Is this only the runtime and not the full development system? What do I need to get to a fully updated system?
Thanks in advance, Joe

The vfpx runtime installer sounds like what I need. I went to the vfpx.org site but I don't see anything to download. How do I get the installer?
Thanks in advance, Joe

Thanks Tracy & wOOdy for posting that link - Vfpx.org
I had heard about that site a while back, don't remember if I had been to the site before. It's quite interesting indeed - especially as it seems that there's a community of very passionate people that are STILL Passionate about FoxPro!
I have a follow-up question - but, I do NOT want to Hi-Jack this thread - so, gonna start a new one.

My experience has been fresh installs overwrite the registry settings.
-- Woody just sent this: First try to install the VFP runtime installer from Vfpx.org. This will also install the necessary components from earlier Windows versions, which

needs. wOOdy

I have a desktop and a laptop with non-functioning installations of
VFP9.
I am thinking that I should remove any previous versions before doing a
new
installation but the recommended method to do so involves having Windows do the uninstal. The Apps list on these machines no longer includes
VFP9
so that method is not an option.
I did delete the C:\Program Files(x86\Microsoft Visual Foxpro 9.0
folder
Is it essential to clean up all files and registry entries or will the
new
installation simply overwrite any entries already there?
Thanks in advance, Joe
