Zusi Route Finder works with no problem at all, ZusiStart won't work though.
It shows a runtime error, saying that I should install a .net , which I did, but it doesn't work.
I read the manual. I suppose I'm doing something wrong.

Okay, i don't actually write Zusi Start and this topic is mainly for Zusi Route Finder but i will try to help.... so you need to provide more information such as:

1. When does the error occur (when you click a certain button etc. if so, which?)
2. What does the error say?
3. Does it happen for every route or just certain ones?
4. Any more information you can provide?

Last but not least... is Zusi also working okay on its own?
I ask because there has been a recent update that requires you to update .NET
Best regards

First of all thank you for your time!!!

I play Zusi in my PC with Win10 Pro (64bit)
I have the Steam version of Zusi, which was, indeed, recently updated.
Also the current .Net component was installed, and Zusi is working perfect with no problems at all.
Zusi Route Finder works also with no problems.

I have tried both versions of ZusiStart (portable and normal)
I think that I am not installing them correctly, maybe wrong path etc.
I read the manual but I couldn't understand.

Is their an English version of how to or where should I install them?

Okay, to use Zusi Start with Zusi Route Finder you need to first download the latest version of Zusi Start which can be found here....

https://zusi-tools.de/downloads/ZusiStart.zip

Extract that Zip folder to a folder of your choice, open that folder and create a Windows shortcut to the file in that folder called: ZusiStart.exe

You can then run Zusi Start from that shortcut.

As for it being in English, well most of Zusi Start should be self explanatory what it does, just play around with it and see, also i believe Harold the author of Zusi Start may decide to do an English version in the future but don't quote me on that.

I hope any of that helps
Best regards
Neil

After a new Zusi 3 update release, I have to uninstall Zusi start or Zusi 3 or both, for install the new Zusi 3 Start Version? That’s the reason for the recommend backup of the Zusi 3 Gamefiles?

Hi, no i don't think you need to uninstall Zusi Start... it should pick up the new game files and routes itself

Further Notes:

Also in Zusi itself make sure that the Zusi Server is running............. you can find this in Zusi under the menu option Configuration > Settings.. > click the Miscelaneous Tab and make sure that Start Server Automatically is checked on.

And in Zusi Start make sure you have your Start Options (find these on the menu: Tools > Start-Optionen) like in this image (to change one of the options just click the signal on the left and you will see it animate up and down), once you have made changes click the green button (Ubernehmen) ...

Now restart everything and see if that makes a difference

Well I did everything you suggested, and I get the install the latest .NETCore App, vesion 6.0.36 (x64).
I installed it , and get the same error.
Eventually I'll find the solution, I can play Zusi without ZusiStart.

Thank you for your time and effort.

Did you try these versions of DotNET?

ZusiStart like ZusiDisplay and other ZusiTools needs .Net8.
