So you want to install the Windows PC version of eWallet® 7 or 8 on Windows 8 -- no problem!

For eWallet 7.5 and higher, you don't need to do anything other than just install eWallet.

eWallet 7.0 through 7.4 for Windows PC does require a Microsoft technology called .NET 3.5, which by default is not turned on for Windows 8. No worries though, it's easy to turn on:

On your Windows 8 device desktop, go to Settings->Control Panel->Programs->Turn Windows Features on or off
Check the box that says .NET Framework 3.5 (includes .NET 2.0 and 3.0)

After selecting the option, you should see this:
Press OK

You might be prompted to let Windows 8 download some files from the Internet (if it doesn't already have them); go ahead and let it download the files.

Once you've let Windows turn on support for .NET 3.5, you'll be able to successfully install eWallet 7.0 - 7.4 for Windows PC.
