I'm trying to install Qlikview on Windows 8 but I'd been completely unsuccessful. I know there are x32 version only for Windows 7 but is there any workaround to force install on windows 8 ?
You can get this to work by downloading the x86 version. What you have to do is run the installation like normal. Behind the scenes the installation is extracting the .MSI file to your AppData\Local directory. The path will be similar to this: C:\User\{your user name here}\AppData\Local\QlikTech Installations\{GUID}.
Next right click on the QlikViewX86.msi file and select "Troubleshoot Compatibility". The wizard will start and will remove the version check that occurs. You can then test it and you will be able to install the product. From there it will save the changes made to the MSI so that you can reuse it in the future.
