  4. Now, start the Longbow Reviver tool, on the “Old Installer Reviver” tab click the “Disable Windows 64bit Device Driver Signing Verification” checkbox, so that it is set.
  5. Now reboot.

  7. Once the conversion process is complete, the Robolab installer dialog will appear. Simply install as normal to the normal c:\Robolab folder.
  8. Once the installation process is complete, make sure you fully quit the Robolab installer then switch back to the Longbow Reviver tool, select the “Old Program Reviver” tab, pick the newly installed c:\Robolab folder, then click Fix Old Program
