System requirements

Basically Meet Manager runs on any Win32 operating system like Windows 7, 8 and 10. It may run on older systems like Windows XP but we cannot give a guarantee for that. Meet Manager uses the Microsoft Jet Database Engine for which the access components should be installed by default with all these operating systems.

Please always ensure that you have administrator privileges when you install the software and that users have full read / write rights to the directories where you save the database files. In addition a common problem is that Antivirus applications block internet access of Meet Manager (Meet.exe) which is necessary for the first time activation and for some functionality that uses the swimrankings.net database.
