Can't launch IPDT

WDT — Fri, 14 Jul 2017 23:13:47 GMT

I just downloaded latest IPDT (Intel Processor Diagnostics Tool), installed it, then tried to run it. After analyzing system info it threw an unhandled exception error, then failed to launch. If I try to launch it again, it'll flash for half a second on analyzing system info, then nothing happens. On Windows 10. MS .Net Framework 4.5 already came with the OS (won't let me install anyways, says I have latest) so I highly doubt it's missing any software requirements.

Anyone know what the problem is?

WindDT: Thank you very much for joining the Intel® Processors communities.

What we can try in order to fix this problem is to re-install the Intel® PDT from scratch. Please go to control panel, look for "programs and features" and un-install the program, turn the PC off and then install it again:

Any further questions, please let me know.

I have the same problems and symptoms except that I am running Windows 7 Pro. I have un-installed and re-installed IPDT several times. What else can I try or check? Thank you!

I was trying all the time to launch this test utility many times on different systems; it never worked. It does not start at all. Click styart>Click agreement>to run it as admin, and then nothing. Not even any infoormation of failure nor closure. This is some kind of strange stuff.
