Did a search on the forum for my issue and got 2 results, neither of which were productive.

Just bought Amikit12, ran it and got the above non-sensical error. I run WindowsFirewallControl (Malwarebytes) and never got a popup to access the internet, so I tried disabling the firewall and Kaspersky AV, but still get the error.

- Amigakit XE 1150
- Windows 10 22H2 64bit
- my amiga OS/ROM version is irrelevent at this point in time.

Hello, I am sorry for the inconvenience. What errors are you getting exactly, please?

Here is a shot of the issue - https://i.imgur.com/W0zaozV.jpg

Thank you for the screenshot. I replied to you on Discord. Here's a possible workaround:

Another solution would be to install AmiKit on different computer - if that helps - and then just transfer the installed folder back to the first computer.

Just posting the fix for this issue in case any others run into the same issue -

The amikit installer, (like some other Windows apps I have come across, eg. Micro$haft account, Winows store) is relying on the windows 10 internet connection probe, that I had disabled/blocked. This is because said probe is basically phoning-home to micro$shaft, the contents of the probe packet arent just a simple TDP/IP ping. It containts info about your machine etc, so in a nutshell they (micro$shaft) can f**k right off).

The upshot is that said app and Amikit is relying on Windows to tell it, that there is an internet connection. Which never work beccause of the above block. I have made the suggesting to Jan that the installer should JUST try and connect to his activation server inetad of relying on windows internet connection probe.

So the fix in this instance was to the reset windows 10 network settings (settings>network & internet - network reset) which temporarily allows windows to think its connected to the net. Thus Amikit then does it thing. Not annoying at all....

Thank you for that!
