I have an HTC Sensation and I tried to root it but unfortunalely because I am using a 64bit computer it does not work is anyone on here in Calgary that can help me root this baby and get S-off.
Thanks in advance
By trying to root it, do you mean trying to unlock it/get S-OFF? I just tried using revolutionary.io and it worked perfectly; I'm on Windows Ultimate 64bit.

Yes trying to get S-off, when ever I click on the revolutionary exe the window shows up and disappears right away
Unistall HTC sync or any other app that syncs your phone with your computer, connect your phone in sync mode, a message will POP up saying no.sync application but just ignore it. And that should fix your problem

HTC Sync isnt required to S-off the phone. Once you have finished with Revolutionary you can reinstall HTC Sync.
Got ya. What exactly is the htc sync for? I always download,etc using mobile only.

HTC Sync is only really used for syncing your PC and mobile device. Tbh it's a load of rubbish!
No problem - it's bright and early here at the moment! (UK).

I am pretty sure you have HTC Sync enabled on startup on your pc. So ctrl+alt+del , then go to processes, end all processes you see having htc in it's name. Now restart the revolutionary exe, should work now.

Try installing htc sync manager. Not sure if you need adb for flashing RUU. But if needed, run 'adb devices' to check if your device is recognized.
After updating my htc butterfly to 4.3, my phone is not detecting in pc, any body know why ?

Same to me and here is my solution:
Uninstall the HTC Sync from PC.
Then, download and install HTC Sync Manager.
Work like a charm.
After installing new HTC Sync, still this problem persists, then change the USB cable.
