Yeah, I don't quite get why it installs in the x86 program directory if it is 64 bit.

With default installation options there haven't been any client installation issues, initial or auto update. In both cases it installed in Program Files (86), this is not uncommon in general and is apparently normal for JamKazam.(04-26-2020, 09:13 PM)kkriner@gmail.com Wrote: There's a new version of the Windows JamKazam client today - maybe that will help.I've had consistent problems with the Windows JamKazam app.
1) When I install the app, I get an error message saying "There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A DLL required for this install to complete could not be run. Please contact your support personnel or package vendor." This happened on several previous versions, and happened today with version 1.0.3709.
2) Supposedly this version is a 64 bit version. It installs in the 32 bit subdirectory Program Files (x86). The install page says specifically that this version is 64 bit only, and should install in the "Program Files" subdirectory.
Any help with this would be great.
That's a troubling DLL problem with the installer, too bad the error message doesn't identify a specific DLL. It seems like reinstalling and updating Windows would fix this, but that can be a disruptive and time consuming fix to say the least.
This web page for a different application has suggestions regarding this specific installation problem, most of it is general in nature and may help you. They also have a suggestion for creating an installation log that you should easily be able to adapt to JamKazam, the log may contain useful information.

KernelBase.DLL is the specific DLL I and others have had issues with.
If anyone has a previous (older) install file they'd like to share in hopes it may work, that would be great.

Update 5/25 - I've decided to give it a try and reinstall windows 10 on my computer. After the re-install was complete, first thing I did was to install JK. I opened the app and was happy that my problem was fixed. (drum roll)
Then I installed my Line6 Spider V driver. A few hours later I tried to join my first session. JK was up and running, the amp was connected and the line6 app was running on my PC.
On JK I went to setup my audio and the app crashed. The app never opened up again after this.

Did you ever try Asio4all drivers?

I've installed the client a few days ago, and never saw it running. I've reinstalled it, reset all my internet settings, disabled the firewall, updated Java, rebooted many times. Nothing seems to fix the problem.
Anybody have the same issues? Any ideas that I haven't tried?
I have no idea why the client was trying to load these insteads of my Focusrite ASIO drivers, but once I uninstalled the oddball ones JamKazam client magically appeared on my screen instead of sitting in memory, inaccessible. Hope this helps.

There seem to be two major reasons why on some Windows machines JKZ won't start. This is after getting around the usual firewall and anti virus software issues.
- The Windows popup asking the user to allow for the installer/launcher to make changes to the system is 'overlooked'. E.g. somewhere in the background or in the taskbar. Without confirmation the install/startup will not continue.
- Also there seem to be issues with audio drivers, be it ASIO or other, that do not belong to the soundcard/audio interface being used at the time.
When starting JKZ it tries to invoke the audio hardware via drivers available on the system. If these drivers and hardware do not match the launch stalls (apparently?!)
This has been remedied by removing all audio drivers present (ASIO & others) and freshly installing - only - the appropriate drivers to your hardware. That is, the soundcard/audio interface you are looking to use in JamKazam.
I personally would not do drastic things like reinstalling Windows to try to get JKZ to operate properly. The program/app installs and works well for a lot of people without having the above issues. So 'Windows & JamKazam' can and will work together. It seems that 'debris' and remains from other installations, be it hardware or software, are the culprit in many occasions.
