Thanks for letting me know, I'll stick with Windows XP. I keep Autoroute as a back up for where I can't get Google Maps. Only problem I have with it is the default option is to calculate the route allowing for an average speed of 75mph on English Motorways *-) - which means it tends to direct you the long way round via a motorway
If you are looking for offline PC based mapping and routing, the only 'free' alternative I can think of for now would be a mixture of Garmin MapSource, OpenMaps and Garnin nRoute (if you have a USB GPS dongle).
Just spent all morning trying download and install autoroute 2013 free trial. This will not load with windows 8, all I get is there is a licencing error. So much for a free trial as you cannot contact Microsoft as there is no support for this. Come back windows seven
This is a well documented issue and there is a patch to fix it - if you are in front of your PC you can call Microsoft on 0344 800 2400 and they will install it for you (its the only way around it - it happened to me a while back).
The patch they will download for you and run to fix the problem will delete itself on restart. I meant to save it somewhere else - so if this happens to you see if you can save it and if so I would be grateful if you could e-mail it to me as I'm sure it might come in handy!
A bit concerned as my netbook is 6 years old and with Microsoft's licensing you now only install one copy to a desktop and one to a notebook, hopefully if I replace the netbook I will be able to find a work round.
Quite possibly a Registry error. I had this daft nonsense when i upgraded from 8 to 8.1. Everything ran ok apart from Autoroute and the reason i found was in the Registry it had been changed back to XP. There is a tab which allows you to reset it back to 8 and it will then run.
Look for a Windows 7 replacement while still available. I have 7 on my laptop and AutoRoute runs fine on that. I still fondly remember the DOS version of AutoRoute that served up several alternative routes every time. Excellent little tool until MS got their claws on it. IMO, they gradually degraded it every time it was updated. 2007, if I remember, allowed one to input actual driving speeds, whereas '13 only gives an uncalibtrated slider and an unspecified "average speed" to work up, or down, from. I guess the advent of smartphone sat nav apps has resulted in falling sales. Probably now best to look at smartphone/tablet apps for good route planners.
Garmin users could try downloading MapSource (which Garmin no longer supports, but has its fans), which is my favourite alternative and is free, although one has to "fine tune" it quite a bit with vehicle types and road speeds to get reliable forecast arrival times. I still can't get my head around BaseCamp, and find it generally frustrating and not very user friendly, which is saying something - as I had hoped it would be an improvement on - not exactly intuitive - MapSource!
However, neither has AutoRoute's convenience of setting journey start times, target end times, routine breaks, fuel consumption and tank capacity to give estimates of when/where re-fuelling will be required. Anyone using older versions of AutoRoute would probably be well advised to update to 2013, which appears to have 2012 mapping updates. Most sat navs that have more recent maps will in any case just use a new road if it is there (ours even tries to use a few that haven't yet completed construction!), so if AutoRoute is just used as a route planing tool, and not for actual navigation, it should remain useful for a good few years yet.
The advantage of either of the Garmin downloads is that if one has a Garmin device with lifetime map updates one has the option, while updating the device, of downloading the maps to the PC (no Mac version of MapSource, only BaseCamp :-() and one can then see the same updated mapping as the device will use. It also has a very useful facility to pull up Google Earth, centred on exactly the same location as is visible on-screen, with its further facility to switch to Google Streets. This is excellent for checking the accuracy of POIs. One can also create and edit PIOs in BaseCamp, and transfer them to the device via Garmin's POILoader. (Something similar can be done via AutoRoute - though not for the Map Pins - via Bing Maps, but it is noweher near so good, and Street View isn't a patch on Google Streets in terms of geographic availability.)
But, neither program will work without the maps installed, as both look for suitable mapping and refuse to open if not present. The routing logic of mapSource is not the same as is now used on the devices, so the route on the device will not necessarily mirror that arrived at in MapSource. No big deal, as neither did AutoRoute, but at least that was, to some extent, to be expected. In short, bummer! :-(
I've also given up trying to download routes for Mapsource to my latest Garmin device, a Nuvi 40LM, because I donlt think it can accept them, in the way that all my orevious Garmin devices have done. That could be my technomensia too I suppose.
Living in the past then Mike, you wouldn't like my latest addition to the house a Nest Thermostat I can now control the central heating system from an app on my phone or any internet connection. (lol)
But I can monitor the house temp when away and make sure nothing freezes also when coming home can set the heating to come on and arrive home to nice warm house. Also reduces house temp when no one is in the house automatically. I didn't pay anything like that for it and the cost is soon recouped by the energy saving. (lol)
I contacted Microsoft today, no help at all. Firstly the person I spoke to did not know of any software called AutoRoute. Then I tried again and spoke to somebody else who said he would transfer me , he did but then I was cut off.
Did you look at that link i posted? I'm assuming you are on 8.1? If so that will explain how to get it installed. With each upgrade of Windows, MS simply use it to stop old applications from running.....but there is always a 'work around'.
FWIW i'm running with 8.1......but my Autoroute is 2007 issue. The 8.1 upgrade stopped it but that was when i found the 'work around' and got it back up running. It may be an old Autoroute but it's good enough for my needs of route planning.
Ah, but as a non-AutoRoute user, you couldn't appreciate its subtleties. One merely enters (just once) the fuel consumption, the capacity of the tank, and how low one want to run it before refuelling, and the program thereafter flags up where along a route the fuel stops will be required. One can then sniff out a handily located supermarket for best fuel prices. So, no great effort required at all, the program does all the work. Maybe not necessary for bumbling around France, with supers in almost every small town, but very useful on long runs in less familiar countries where the supers (and filling stations) are much less frequent. It just helps route planning. Great tool.
