几周前,我主持了一场 Paratext 初学者研讨会。有些参与者当时还没有加入正式的翻译项目,所以人们带来了各种不同年代的电脑……能弄到什么就是什么。在 Paratext 下载页面上,它说 Paratext 9.1 需要 Windows 8 或更高版本,以及 64 位操作系统。有几台电脑我们无法安装 Paratext 9.1,其中一台确实是 Windows 7,但我认为其他所有安装失败的电脑都是旧版本的 Windows 10(比如 2015 年或 2016 年的版本)。我原本以为它们一定是 32 位机器,但我特意检查了其中一台,结果显示它是 64 位机器。(我不记得具体细节了,但所有安装都以同样的方式失败,所以这不是随机的安装故障,而是操作系统类型不符合安装要求导致的失败。)
不幸的是,我现在无法再访问那些电脑了。我随手记下了几台机器上 Windows 10 版本的笔记,但现在我甚至不确定该如何解读我的潦草字迹:一台写着“1511 10.0 10240 @2015”,另一台写着“10.586.0 @2016”。
所以问题是,是否有 Windows 10 的最低版本要求,还是说需要某个 .NET 库或其他组件,而旧版本的 Windows 10 没有?
幸运的是,我相信我们能够在所有这些机器上安装 Paratext 9.0,但这对于这些初学者来说也造成了一些困惑,因为他们屏幕上的内容与演示者屏幕上的内容不一致。
I led a Paratext beginners workshop a couple of weeks ago. Some of the participants weren’t in official translation projects yet, so people brought all sorts of different ages of computers… whatever they could get their hands on. On the Paratext download page it says that Paratext 9.1 requires Windows 8 or greater, and a 64-bit OS. There were several computers where we couldn’t install Paratext 9.1, and one of them was in fact Windows 7, but I think all of the others where the install failed were old versions of Windows 10 (like from 2015 or 2016). I assumed that they must be 32-bit machines, but one of them I specifically checked and it said that it was a 64-bit machine. (I don’t remember the details, but the installs all failed in the same way, so it wasn’t just some random installation failure, but a failure to have the right kind of OS for installation.)
Unfortunately, I don’t have access to the computers anymore. I jotted down a couple of notes of Windows 10 versions from a couple of the machines, but I’m not even sure how to decipher my scribbles now: for one “1511 10.0 10240 @2015” and for the other “10.586.0 @2016”.
So the question is, is there a minimum version of Windows 10 required, or is there some dot net library or something required that old Windows 10 versions don’t have?
Fortunately, I believe we were able to install Paratext 9.0 on all of those machines, but that also caused some confusion for these beginners, when things on their screen weren’t the same as on the presenter’s screen.
