SharePoint Migration Tool Issue

Hello,

 

I am having an issue with starting the SharePoint Migration tool. I run the application file but i get an error "Application cannot be started. Contact the application vendor". The error is:

  • Hi,

    I got the same error.

    As mentioned in the "How to use the SharePoint Migration Tool" from Microsoft  (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepointmigration/how-to-use-the-sharepoint-migration-tool), this tool need .NET Framework 4.6.2 to work.

    You can get it here (~60MB) : https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=53344

     

    Btw, after the installation, I got asked to reboot, but I could launch the app without rebooting.

     

    Have a nice day =)

    Not sure how many folks on this forum have knowledge on the SPMT. Perhaps also post this message on the SPMT forum on TechNet (https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/home?forum=SharePointMigrationTool)
