Citrix and MS Terminal Server

AQT will run OK in shared environments such as Citrix, Terminal Server or VMS.

.Net Framework 4.5

AQT v10.1 and AQT v11 requires .Net Framework 4.5 to be installed on your machine.

In most cases, this will be present on Windows 10 and Windows 11.

AQT v10.0 or AQT v9 use .Net Framework 3.5, This is a separate "product" to .Net Framework 4.5 and will have to be installed even if you have .Net Framework 4.5 on your machine. To do this:

go to Control Panel > Programs and Features
select Turn Windows Features on or off
scroll down until you find Microsoft .Net Framework v3.5.
check the box
click on OK. The product will be installed.

Database Clients and ODBC Drivers

To access a database, you need to have a database client and/or ODBC Driver for the database. AQT does not supply any of these, these will need to installed and configured as a separate step.

There is more on this at Configuring a Database Connection.
