VTube has a problem understanding where the configuration folders are inside Windows XP without some manual setup work.

  1. On Windows 7, 8, and 10 computers, the installation program for VTube installs configuration data here: "C:\Users\Public\Documents\VTube\config".

  2. On Windows XP computers, the installation program will create the configuration folder here: "C:\Documents and Settings\All User\Shared Documents\VTube\config"

However, VTube will not find the Documents and Settings folder when it runs in Windows XP. The reason is that there is no knowledge of a PUBLIC folder path like there is in newer Windows versions.


How To Install VTube to Windows XP

FIRST: DO NOT RUN VTUBE IMMEDIATELY AFTER INSTALLATION. Please follow the steps below to fix the problem before running VTube.


STEP 1 - CREATE A C:\VTUBE Folder

Load the File Explorer and create a C:\VTube folder.

Leave the empty folder open in File Explorer.

STEP 2 - FIND THE INSTALLATION FOLDER FOR THE SAMPLE DATA AND CONFIGURATION DATA

Load another the File Explorer and browse to "C:\Documents and Settings\All User\Shared Documents\VTube"

Select and copy everything in that folder.


STEP 3 - COPY EVERYTHING IN THE SHARED DOCUMENTS FOLDER and PASTE IT TO THE C:\VTUBE FOLDER

Select and copy everything in the second folder and copy it to the C:\VTUBE folder.


STEP 4 - RUN VTUBE

VTube will find the files in C:\VTUBE (including the C:\VTUBE\CONFIG folder).
