With the recent demand in using Folding@Home to combat COVID19, many have noticed the Protein Viewer does not work in Windows with (v7.5.1). This is a temporary fix to get the viewer working using an older version of the FAHViewer from version (v7.4.4)
Bare in mind, the viewer only works for CPU Work Units.
- Download the
FAHViewer.exe
andfreetype6.dll
files from version (7.4.4) here:
a) Find fah-installer_7.4.4_x86.exe
on internet, open .exe
with 7zip to extract the above files. (DO NOT INSTALL OLD VERSION)
OR
b) I have extracted the files and place them in my google drive: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/12Ya7Sxsv161BFIrsbqgz9bySwKJKkXIH?usp=sharing
- Find local FAHClient (v7.5.1) installed directory. Mine was
C:\Program Files (x86)\FAHClient
- Move and replace the FAHViewer.exe and freetype6.dll into the root of that directory. (
FAHViewer.exe
will be asked to be replaced) - (optional) Untick 'Run as Administrator' in the file properties of FAHViewer.exe
- Wait for a CPU WU to come in and watch in awe!
just wanted to thank you for the partial fix but screen saver is now only thing bugged not showing the updated stuff
