I have VS 2013 Express installed under Windows 7 SP1, with no problems. You will need to collect some more information for people to help you. Try checking the system event logs, or any files left over from the installation process.

Thanks for your answer! I know it works, because I tried another similar tree myself. But I really do not know why it does not work in a particular case. What I am trying to do is to copy a CTreeCtrl from Dialog1 to Dialog2. So I do something like Dialog1::_tree1.GetNextSiblingItem(ci) and then put ci in _tree2 which is in Dialog2, like this _tree2.InsertItem(csChild,NULL, NULL), where csChild = Dialog1::_tree1.GetItemText(ci). So it may be that this cross dialog thing is the problem.

Okay, I will do that. Thanks.

I'm using MFC. Thanks for the suggestion.

I had to look at the implementation of vector.. you're correct, it is copied. As far as the boost site sucking, well, that's something you have to live with when using third party libraries. You can always make your own serialization class and you won't have support issues (although it'll take you some time to do it).
