Hi everybody, Thanks in advance for your help. I have been trying for days to reinstall Onyx on a windows 10 PC, but have run into this error repeatedly  
I tried to re-install originally because my old version, (4.2.1045) was just sitting there spinning, and would not start any shows. Not sure but I believe it happened after the latest windows ten update on may 8. I’ve tried to google solutions but nothing has worked so far…also tried a restore of the PC to 5/7, but still get the same error  
This is very frustrating. If the SQL server is broken, I don’t know how to fix that.  
Same install works on othe pc that has the most recent windows update.  
Any help would be appreciated…

Could you run the AnyDesk utility and PM me your ID, so I could fix remotely?

I get exactly the same issue and I had the 4.4.1192 version installed and tried to install the 4.2.1052 version and it just froze in the installation progress so I tried to install the 4.4.1192 version again and the error occured. I have tried to install the 4.4.1193 version since the and I got the same error every time.

So Onyx currently is not installed? In that case, run the following in a command prompt with administrative privileges and try again:

sqllocaldb unshare .\ObsidianOnyx

I have the same problem, impossible to install and run correctly, impossible to uninstall.  
I’d like to remove it completely because it reminds me my worst experiences of the “plug and play” era before I moved to mac…

If Onyx is currently installed, and you get the error when trying to uninstall, run the following on a command prompt with administrative priviliges:

sqllocaldb create ObdisianControl  
sqllocaldb share ObsidianControl ObsidianOnyx

and try uninstalling again; if Onyx is not currently installed, and you get the error when trying to install, run the following on a command prompt with administrative privileges:

sqllocaldb unshare .\ObsidianOnyx

and try installing again

jzafra,

From the docs previously published, Looks like 4.2.105 was the last version that would run on Windows 7. Starting with the 4.4.xxxx A) requires Windows 10, and B) stopped working with generic (Entec designed) dongles (if you are using such a thing for the PC version).

The Versioning information is at this link: [Obsidian Software Downloads/Notes](http://support.obsidiancontrol.com/Content/Support/Downloads.htm) Just scroll down to read all the updates (4.4.1186 was first version to implement the above changes).

Gabor,

Did you happen to try the recommendations posted by @gert_leunen earlier in the thread? He is one of the developers and if those recommendations still don’t work, he’ll probably want to take a closer look with you.

Also, if you do get it fully uninstalled. Make sure all windows 10 updates are installed. Double check, yep the good old restart between. And then try the install (run as admin) again.

Hope this helps,

Watson

Hi Watson

Thank you for your fast message.  
Yes, I read all of the post in group. I read/look posted by gert\_leunen before…  
I was not able to achieve it what he wrote. I tried.

My idea, I Reinstall the Win10 again. But I am waiting yet. But if the mistake comes forward again?

* * *

Was beginning so when I Started the Onyx and a message window pop up Something /CriticalError/.  
I wanted to delete it then.

Thx Gabor

Is there a how to fix it? I have tried all that i have found on this post. With the time zone differences i couldt stay with the clients computer. We are in lock down for another 5ish weeks. So I might be able to get the client to look at it. They were talking about just doing a clean install of windows 10. We were having issues removing or installing over 4.2. cheers mike.
