imilar topic with a Windows 10 user, which successfully fixed this issue.If you are tiny little patient, I think we can try the same steps in your Windows 7 case.For start, try these three steps:1) Close Rhino. Restart your PC. 2) Once the PC boots up, double click on the "regMapWinGIS.cmd" file in "MapWinGIS" installation folder.3) When it closes the Command Prompt window it opened, try running Rhino, Grasshopper and drop the "Gismo Gismo" component on the canvas (Grasshopper working area).If this does not help (you get the same COM class factory CLSID error message coming out from the "Gismo Gismo" component), then try the following steps, one by one:
1) Close Grasshopper and Rhino2) Run the Revo Uninstaller Pro and uninstall your MapWinGIS application along with removing all the leftovers from the registry. You can download 30 days trial version of it from here. Here is a youtube example of a bit older Revo Uninstaller. But the important part is that is shows how registry leftovers are removed.3) Restart your PC, and once it boots again, make sure that you are logged in as an Adminstrator!4) In your Start menu's search box type: "UAC", which will find your User Account Control Settings. Click on it, and a new window will open. Set the bar on the left to "Never notify".5) Turn off your Antivirus, which ever it is.6) Download the 64 bit version of v4.9.4.2 MapWinGIS.7) Right click on downloaded MapWinGIS-only-v4.9.4.2-x64.exe file, and choose "Properties". If there is "Unblock" button click on it, and then click on "OK". If there is no "Unblock" button, just click on "OK".8) Left double click on MapWinGIS-only-v4.9.4.2-x64.exe file and install it to "C:\dev\MapWinGIS" folder. Choose "Full installation" during installation process!9) In your Start menu's search box type: "CMD". Once the "Command prompt" appears do not left click on it! Instead right click on it, and choose "Run as Administrator".10) A command prompt window will open. Type the following command:
"your_regsvr32_folder_path\regsvr32.exe" /u /s c:\dev\mapwingis\mapwingis.ocx
If command does not result in an error message, then type this one afterwards:
"your_regsvr32_folder_path\regsvr32.exe" /s c:\dev\mapwingis\mapwingis.ocx
11) If no error appeared again, then open your Rhino and Grasshopper and check what "Gismo Gismo" component prints from its "readMe!" output.If errors appeared, please post their screenshots. Thank you in advance.
Please accept my apologies for the large number of steps. Some of them are quite simple actually (click on this, download that...).…

run a single component per time? After running of which component, does Grasshopper get stuck?You might have to wait more than 30 minutes. Maybe you can leave your PC turned on during the night, and see what will happen in the morning?3) What are your latitude_ and longitude_ inputs coordinates?…

RL code inside the panel then the plugin gives a error about a missing internet connection (see the attached picture).
Some details that can give you more perspective about the problem:
-The installation on my PC went exact the same way like i installed it on my laptop (and it works fine on my laptop).
-I use windows 7 on my laptop and windows 8 on my PC.
-Mr. Scott (from McNeel) adviced me to refresh my windows because some connection were broken after a rename of the C drive. But the problem wasn't solved after the refresh.
-Mr. Scott also teamviewed me (before the refresh) and so far i understood everthing looked fine (except the windows error). The Grasshopper also worked fine on his PC.
The Grasshopper setup is also atached in this message. Hopefully someone can help me find a solution. Because my laptop can't run all the resources and my school investigation gets a possible delay.

crosoft Visual C++ 2010 (vcredist_x86.exe) and installing grasshopper_wip_20110730 did not help.
Same error message. My PC is running Windows 7 Enterprise 64bit.
What else can I do to make GH run?…
port.
In my case, I downloaded arduino installer again from arduino website, then I chosen correct port that "control panel > device and printer > Arduino Uno > choose correct COM".
Finally, I could enjoy arduino and firefly!
Thank you Andy!…
o luck so far. I get the same error every time. I am attaching a print screen. Thanks to anyone who makes an effort
P.S. My PC is running now Windows 8 Enterprise N RTM x64 Build 9200 …

hot you posted suggests, that "Terrain Generator" tried two times to download the terrain file from opentopography.org, and it failed to do that both times.As the opentopography.org servers are working, the problem may be with your PC. It may for some reason blocking the "Terrain Generator" component from downloading the terrain file.Can you please try these steps:1) Close your Grasshopper and Rhino.2) Restart your PC3) When it boots up again, in your Start menu's search box type: "UAC", which will find your User Account Control Settings. Click on it, and a new window will open. Set the bar on the left to "Never notify".4) Turn off your Windows Firewall.5) Then turn off your custom Firewall (in case you have another one, besides standard Windows Firewall).6) Then completely turn off your Antivirus.7) Right-click on "Rhino 5" icon and then choose: "Run as administrator".8) When Rhino boots up, run Grasshopper, and open the newest analyse_terrain.gh file from here. Do not increase the radius_ input. Try running it with the default radius: 600 meters.
After these steps, are there any warning messages with your "Terrain Generator" component?…
