[QcRail]

Hi all,

I've strugdled for 3 days with a new installation of TS-Tools (since I upgraded my portable with a new C drive) and even re-installed TSC 24-25. And hold a behold had to re-install TS-Tools, which fonctions till I want to open and edit a .bin file !!! I get Error no.75 (I have re installed TS_tools 3 time both on C and D drives to produce same error).

Did you do all this?
TS-Tools can change files in the Program Files or Program Files (x86) folder on your PC, so must be
installed and run with Administrators rights.
1. Right click the installation program and select ‘Run as Administrator’ when first installing the
program.
2. Right click ‘TS-Tools.exe’ once installed and select Properties/Compatability and tick the box to
‘Always run program as administrator’ then it will always run as administrator and no further action
is required.

Buzz,
Sure did. Remember I have been using TS-Tools since its availability and I have done lots of repaint projects which requires TS-Tools. What I can’t figure out is it a Windows problem or TS-Utilities? If so where?

By the way could it be related to sers.exe?

Suggest you just go search "error 75 in TSTools" in your search engine. Bunches of suggestions about how to fix it.

Error #75 in TS Tools typically indicates a "Path/File access error," which means the program is having trouble accessing a specific file or directory. This can happen if the file is missing, the path is incorrect, or there are permission issues

I've got mine running under admin rights and I still run into errors trying to unpack an ap file. But I can live with that given the time it saves me with repaints. I feel your pain not having it.

I'm back in business!!!

It took me quite a while to pinpoint the problem with Error 75, let me explain for future reference the solution :
1. TS-Tool was functioning as long as it did not look for any file nor its path,
2. Photoshop was doing what it does best,
3. Windows 11 was newly installed on a new C/ disk drive,
4. After a pause I looked into the MS Visual C++ libraries and found that I was missing the Visual C++ 2010 x86

Herewith, find the 3 Virtual C++ redistributables for TS-Tools to function properly.

Now, I can resume my repainting projects. Since I returned from a fantastic trip to Japan, I am working on to highly needed wagons : 1) a container flat with typical JRF (Japanese Rail Freight) containers and an adapted version of the JOT (Japanese Oil Transportation) tankers. I assume that little interest is for such liveries since this site is focalized on N. American rolling stock; yet I'm having lots of fun
