GoPro Studio Software for windows 7 [ New ]

[danielr15]

Oh, shucks. Was I supposed to infer that your clients weren't getting excellent IT support and therefore getting their money's worth? I will most certainly work on my learning to read.

I feel so silly now. I think you're supposed to put /s at the end of your silly and sarcastic statements about not needing security updates! Here I was acting a fool and agreeing with you. Boy, are my cheeks red 😳

[bobs73216]

Well you clearly didnt read this part of my post "I have spent a lot of my time telling clients "yes always install windows updates" etc etc"

Your parents should probably ask for a refund on the cost of your education

@bobs73216
Yes, your points are clear and linear. No contradictions or silly misguided statements to be sure. Truly you have a dizzying intellect.

Yes, but if you supported your customer you should post a link YOURSELF where we can download Quick for Windows 7.  This is the worst customer service possible.

[rockyflame00827]

Is there actually a version of Quick that works with Windows 7 ?  Thought that quick wanted something more recent, which makes more sense

[bobs73216]

peter WTF are you on about? I wanted Quik for me not a customer

think this was the version that still works on Win 7 - GoProStudioPC-2.5.10.4851

daniel - they are clear, Win 7> Win 10. Win 10 offers nothing that 7 couldnt if they updated it, the latout of 10 is a horrible mess, stupid tiles, control panel & settings, yeah its a great OS.....

This link is not for Win 7

Hi @fireyriver37550,

We no longer have any installer of GoPro Studio available on gopro.com. You may find more details about this here: https://gopro.com/help/articles/question_answer/GoPro-Studio-End-of-Life-FAQ

Kind Regards,

Ann

yeah GoPro didn't care enought to support Windows 7 users.  They did't want to support it because I think the folks at GoPRO are realizing that it's not worth spending time on supporting it.  I think they realized the end is coming and don't care about customers.  Glad they are going out of business and will be bought by Chinese counterfeit companies.  The lastest GoPro studio seems to have features the windows 7 doesn't.  I was able to download the windows 7 version from this thread but I don't see it anymore.

There are lots of equivlanet counterfeits out there that are comparable to GoPro and way cheaper than goPro.  My friend bought an SJCAM and he loves it.

Not only did Gopro cut down on their customer service calls as you suggested.  They also cut down on their customer base.  Maybe 2019 will hold a "comeback".  I doubt it.   https://www.fool.com/investing/2019/01/09/is-gopro-set-for-success-in-2019.aspx

I have Window 7 Pro and Quik software says it needs a newer version of Windows.  How do I donwload Studio for Windows 7.  My old program worked fine.  Then I uploaded update and it won't work.  I cannot find Stuido that will work with Windows 7 Pro.

Your best option is to use a proper non-linear video editor. Some free options are:
VSDC on Windows- http://www.videosoftdev.com/free-video-editor/download.
DaVinci Resolve https://www.blackmagicdesign.com/products/davinciresolve

VideoProc https://www.videoproc.com/
HitFilmExpress https://hitfilm.com/express
ShotCut https://shotcut.org/download/
Lightworks http://www.lwks.com/
Avidemux http://avidemux.sourceforge.net/
Blender https://www.blender.org/download/
EZvid http://www.ezvid.com/download
VirtualDub http://www.virtualdub.org/
Fusion https://www.blackmagicdesign.com/products/fusion/motiongraphics

Absolutely and exactly how I feel.  You are 100% correct.  GoPro want to have their cake and eat it.  They weren't complaining when they were taking our money for their products but now they just dump us and move on to their newer customers with their newer Windows O/S.  I have WIndows 7 and have deliberately not upgraded to 10, and now my Studio software is starting to play up.  Total b*ll*cks.

[kagetsu]

I just packaged up my Fusion I bought from Target for $299.99. Being forced into windows 10 and literally having the software crash nonstop has just gotten on my nerves. Thank you (read all 27 pages of this thread) for helping decide that I don't really want this.

[cretins]

Can't find anywhere where it states Windows 10 required for Hero 7 Black.

[danielr15]

Because Windows 10 isn't required for HERO7 Black. For the optional software it is (which is listed in the system requirements), but not for the camera. The Quik Desktop app isn't required for updating, editing, cloud uploading, or even adding GPS gauges. 

[rockyflame00827]

Interesting.. what software was provided with SJCAM??

[rockyflame00827]

there are a number of people around who still have the former studio program that worked with Windows 7 

[danielr15]

You don't want Studio. There are plenty of much better video editors available for free, DaVinci Resolve, VideoProc, VCSD ... And many more.

[nimbleridg145]

Just got a hero 8, and the videos from it will not import into the old studio software :/

[sophal029]

oh that sucks, I feel for you.  Not sure why GoPro did that but it's not a surprise to me.

You would think they would upkeep gopro studio to support future hardware but they probably didn't have the resources to update and fix the bugs with GoPro studio.  I've been playing around with Sony Vegas 2016 and slowly moving away from my GoPro studio windows 7 support.

[hardyriver01353]

GoPro Quik is the only software that works with new cameras like the 8 now, and it only runs on Windows 10. Short of that you're stuck.

[coredesign]

Same. were you able to find the Win7 version?

[fireypike54058]

That link takes you back to the same download for Windows 10
