I've lost the installer for this software, and the company QPCARD have gone bust.

The machine on which it was installed had backups but of course it didn't backup the installed software, and that
machine ceased about 2 years ago.

I may have a backup of the original download somewhere, but so far no success.

It's a small exe about 450kb, worked on 64bit Windows Vista, so should be okay on Win 10 (I hope)

Does anyone have a saved copy they can share, I've looked at all the usual software sharing sites but they all point back to the non-existent version on QPCARD's website.

Thanks

What is QPCARD and why would you want anything that ran on Windows VISTA? It would seem to me anything non-Microsoft or non-Adobe is questionable to run on an up to date machine (Win 10 as of 2020).

It is rough once the manufacturer or publisher goes bye bye. Others drop support and files. Good luck.

This is Qpcard, specially printed to give a true set of colors, the program qpcolorsoft 501 takes an image in which this card was included and automatically corrects the color with a generated correction profile. I have the cards, and as I'm red/green color blind an automated correction was a good idea.

I've only just got back to my hobby, due to family illness/bereavement and discovered that my new machine needed this bit of glue software, but it no longer existed.

Thanks, but that site says "oops! the link has gone" and the download buttons they do provide are to a different program. Had been there already, but rechecked it tonight, and that avenue has gone.

I can only hope that someone has saved a copy of the installer, like I thought I had, I'm still looking!!!!

Thanks

If I don't find this tool, then an alternative color correction system may be a good investment. Any suggestions what I should be looking for/at?
