Hi,

I use Workbench more and more these days but unfortunately the new 
version won't install on my PC.  I go through the wizard to the page 
after you choose a complete or custom install, then the Windows Data 
Execution Protection (DEP) kicks in and closes the installer.

5.0.24 installed just fine on this same machine a few weeks ago.  DEP is 
set to "turn on DEP for essential Windows programs and services only" 
which is actually a low-security setting.  I'm guessing the Windows 
installer is classed as an "essential" Windows program.

Any ideas?  This is using Windows Vista 32-bit Home Premium SP1 on an 
Athlon-64 PC.

Thanks,

Andy

PS. I also agree with other people's comments that's it time for an 
update to the GUI Tools (Administrator and Query Browser etc.)  You have 
a couple of good tools here; Workbench is great for sure, but I don't 
think it should be the sole focus.
