Sorry - not J but you're a clever lot out there.... Jchat to avoid
wasting proper J-time.
Under Windows 8.1, using the msdos emulation, cmd.exe.
I've been messing around trying to install Python 3 and seem to have
killed off Python 2.7 (not the end of the world for me), but on the way
I experimented with running gfortran under mingw, new to me. I
compiled a source file successfully, and ran the object code. I then
wished to compare its performance with the same file compiled under
salford fortran, which I've been using for ever. But on running the
latter I got the error message "This app can't run on your pc" ... the
salford compiler wasn't able to run. I thought I should have run the
cmd.exe as administrator, so closed and reopened as admin. Now the
gfortran won't run either.
So I then did the traditional "restart", but still no success.
Google says SmartScreen is at fault, but attempts to disable it haven't
so far borne fruit.
I expect there's a regedit tweak - but any useful help welcome.
Thanks in advance,
Mike
