[Ifeffit] Demeter not working on Windows 8.1 64bit

Shoaib,

Do you have any experience with virtual machines?  You could run it on a stable earlier version of Windows that you previous used before upgrading.  Virtualbox and Linux would completely free and you could probably be up and running in less than an hour.

Just a thought,

Chris
