Just to be clear: There are TWO versions of VFPA ("A" like the Hex notation of "10")
a) the patched version of your existing VFP9 installation. This implies that it's stil a 23Bit version. This is the version you most probably want to use immediately. Download the 32Bit on the bottom of: http://baiyujia.com/vfpadvanced/f_vfpa_about.asp It needs a current VFP9 installation with SP2, and then creates a new directory with a patched new VFP9.exe and also copies all of the other files of your VFP9 source directory. Thus, after installation you just rename the old VFP9 directory to something different, and rename the new directory to the original name, and all your Registrykeys and Links will work without interruption.
b) a new VFP10 err... VFPA compiler for 64 bit executables. Stil with some compatibility problems, and I'm not sure if I would ever need it, but: http://baiyujia.com/vfpadvanced/f_vfpa_gotovfpa64.asp

Apparently, I've been under a rock, and there's a magically enhanced VFP9 SP2 that fixes some bugs, can run concurrently with vfp9, and supports 64 bits.
Before I download something, am I on the right site: http://baiyujia.com/vfpadvanced/f_vfpa_about.asp ?
Thanks!

So I got a new Win10 Pro laptop at the Corporate gig and installed VFP9 on it. It was NOT patched...so the version is Visual FoxPro 09.00.0000.2412 for Windows.
I downloaded the VFPA 32 bit from (a) below and when I go to run it, it fails with this error: https://www.screencast.com/t/XVR3hDpLXOB
I'm guessing that's because I've not patched the default installation to 9.0.0.7423?
Wanted to ask while I search for the VFP9SP2HotFix 3 installer. (I had tried one from wOOdy I thought but got a resource error earlier today...will try again now since I've uninstalled and reinstalled.)

Yes, you have to have the fully patched SP2 hotfix 3 version already installed on your system.
Check VFPX on Github for the hotfix installer. I'm pretty sure it got migrated there. If you still have problems, contact me off-list and I can send to you.

I think that's SP1?
You probably have the VFP DLLs from multiple versions scattered about your system. In particular, check the common files location buried under program files.

Hi Mike,
a) THE VFPA thingy modifies the DEVELOPMENT version, and that one has to be on SP2.
b) The file you downloaded from github (VFP9SP2RT) is the RUNTIME installer, and of course does not touch your dev-system.
c) therefor you need the SP2 for VFP9 development, so that you at least get version 7423. This is done by downloading https://github.com/VFPX/VFP9SP2Hotfix3
d) I once wrote all about that stuff in my blog at http://woody-prolib.blogspot.com/ that's a step-by-step guide to install VFP9 on modern boxes.
