I'm running Windows 7 (64bit) and my VW just updated on Monday, and everything is fine.

Maybe it's a problem on your end?

Make sure you have enough FREE memory for VW, and I would suggest you try and run a manual update.

I have read here in the past that the FIX was to do a manual update,

Navigate to VersaWorks folder in the start menu, and click on "Online Update". Then click "Check for Updates". The second manual update usually makes the problem go away.​

Hope this HELPS...

If you get really stuck, you can try the Initialize Application icon.
Last ditch effort before re-installing.
You may lose your settings though.

If you have an older Roland do not get the updates. At a certain point Roland no longer releases valid updates. All you end up doing is wasting drive space and creating problems. Been there done that. A top level tech alerted us when we started having issues after an update. No more updates = no more problems for us.

I really appreciate your comments. We have an older model and everytime we updated there was problems. Finally stopped updating. Never did connect the idea that my machine is what they call a "legacy" machine which isn't supported like the newer ones. Still trying to get the new VSi. Might be a few months I'm though.

So...good answer, thanks RJ.

I just updated to Windows 7 Pro. I have a VersaWorks 3.03 disc from our original purchase and it isn't installing. I get a message saying it can't run the initialization file. I'm getting a newer disc but it sounds like an admistrative thing. - any thoughts?

I would get a more updated disc and do a full reinstall

If he's got an older(legacy) Roland he will create a sh!t ton more problems by doing that.
