Exchange Server 2007 Management Tools on Vista x64 SP1
Hello, I am having an issue where I cannot install the Exchange Management Tools on a Windows Vista x64 SP1 workstation. I receive the error message stating it is not a compatible OS. According to the KB on installing the tools on Vista you should not get this with SP1. Any ideas? Dustin Schultz

Hi Dustin, Please check whether you installed any Outlook components in the Vista system. According to below KB, it not allow to install both Exchange components and outlook component at the same computer.

I tested it in a vista Virtual machine ago, It worked and Exchange Server 2007 Management Tools could be installed successfully without installing any outlook components, so I believe it also willwork for you if you remove outlook components and try installing it again. Meanwhile, if you have any further update information, please feel free to open a new thread here. Regards, Jason
