Hello!
Just installed Tekla Structure Learning 21.1 on my computer.
The problem is that after installing the program it won't open, and I have tried to install Tekla multiple times. I don't get an error message either.
I need help to get the program up and running fast as possible.

Hello Steffen,
Please note that Tekla Structures is not supported on Windows 10 yet. You can find the hardware requirements here.
It might be that you are experiencing so-called hooking problem: some software are known to cause Tekla Structures not to start up correctly. Please check if you are using any of the software mentioned on the list on this support article: http://teklastructures.support.tekla.com/en/other-software-hooking-tekla-structures.
Follow the instructions in the article to solve the problem.
I've tried following the steps to controll if any hooking software are blocking Tekla Structures, but none of the following programs are installed on my computer. So when opening Autoruns.exe and then going in the tab AppInit, its completely empty.
Even tried to install Tekla on a second HDD and run it as a Windows 8 or 7 program.
You could try to reinstall .NET and C++ packages. That has solved similar problem for some users.

Thank you for the answer!
The last step about running "Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable (x86)" did the trick.
Now it works perfectly!
By the way, I had to install Tekla before running "vcredist_x86.exe"
I am glad to hear that your problem was resolved!
