Hi Byron,
Starry Night does work with Windows 8.1.
Starry Night does not work with Windows 8 RT.
Your help on this issue has been priceless. However I have one silly question. I know full install takes 11gb and supposed to take forever. It didn't take long at all (but neither did Solid Works and it is HUGE) and when I look at properties under ..\..\Starry Night it says total 2.8 gb. The all sky works fine but I can't help wondering if something didn't install. Any advice or am I just nuts??
