Resolution:
- If the Dynamics Report Manager Crystal Launcher program exists in the Programs and Features window, remove it.
- This program is called Dynamics Report Manager Crystal Launcher in the list of Programs.
- It will have an icon consisting of 4 blue dots that form a diamond shape.
- If you do not find it, then go to step 2.
- In the Programs and Features window, look for Microsoft .NET Framework 4 full version. If you do not find both Microsoft .NET Framework 4 Client Profile and Microsoft .NET Framework 4 Extended, then download Microsoft .NET Framework 4 full version from https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=17851 and install it. Note: On Windows 8 and newer, the Microsoft .NET Framework 4 full version is typically included.
- Install the Dynamics Report Manager (DRM) build components.
- Right click on the DRMSetup.exe file that came with your download of DRM and then click Run as Administrator.
- Browse to the GP Application Folder.
- Click Install.
