intel sdk for opencl applications 2019.5.345 installer crash

[geron__sebastien]

Hello,

I just downloaded intel sdk for opencl applications 2019.5.345 (stand-alone version for Windows that I downloaded from https://software.intel.com/en-us/opencl-sdk/choose-download). I unzipped the archive and tried to run setup.exe. The first screen of the installer shows up, the progress bar is moving during 2 or 3 seconds and then... it closes and nothing more happens.

I went to Windows Event Viewer -> Windows Logs -> Application and saw an error (see below). Obviously the installer crashed. Is there any other way of getting this tool installed?

Thanks in advance for your time and help,

Sébastien Geron

Hello Geron,

We are working on this issue right now.

As workaround, please try to run "install.exe --net3.5".

Install.exe is located in .zip archive of OpenCL SDK.

Best regards,

Sergey

Hi @Sergey_I_Intel1 

I tried the --net3.5 option to install.exe as suggested for Geron, but this did not work.

Otherwise, the event log events look the same as Geron reported.

Is there another option to get the installer working?

That did the trick, thank you.
