While trying to debug an old device on an updated Windows 7 machine, I found that HyperTerminal was no longer available out of the box in Windows 7. To work around this, HyperTerminal can be manually installed on Windows 7 by downloading the HyperTerminal application and DLL and placing them into the right area. h2. Manually Install HyperTerminal on Windows 7 # Download the necessary application and DLL # Make the *+C:\Program Files (x86)\HyperTerminal\+* directory #* Move *_hypertrm.exe_* into the *+C:\Program Files (x86)\HyperTerminal\+* directory # * Copy *_hypertrm.dll_* into the *+C:\WINDOWS\system32\+* directory Now just run hypertrm.exe and HyperTerminal is on Windows 7. h3. Create HyperTerminal Shortcut If you want to have HyperTerminal on your Start Menu just create a shortcut to hypertrm.exe and put it in the *+C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs+* and when you go to +Start Menu -> All Programs+ HyperTerminal will be there.
