VE 2018 Setup Failing or Shared Content out of date

[Terence]

VE 2018 requires an update for Standard Data & Weather files (also known as Shared Content). Users who don't install the update for Standard Data & Weather Files should see the following message when they launch the VE.



Users can check their version of Shared Content by selecting Control Panel > Programs & Features and finding a program from IES called “IESVE Standard Data & Weather Files”.

VE 2014 Feature Pack 2 (2014.2.0.0) requires v2.6.0.
VE 2015 (2015.0.0) requires v3.0.0.
VE 2016 (2016.0.0) requires v3.2.0.
VE 2017 (2017.0.0) requires v3.2.0.
VE 2018 (2018.0.0) requires v3.4.0.
VE 2018 Hotfix 1 (2018.0.1) requires v3.5.0.



If you don’t have it at all, or if it is not v3.5.0, then please download the full VE 2018 Application from the Download centre and install that instead. When you run this installer it checks to see if v3.5.0 is installed. If it isn't then it will update your Standard Data & Weather Files (shared content) installation.
