I'm running XBMC on Vista (working on replacing my Xbox 1 with it) and couldn't get the launcher program to run to save my life.
Ultimately, I used 1.01 and started XBMC as administrator (Right Click - Run as Administrator).
Solved my problems. Thanks. Great way to run PC games, so it'd be like an Xbox that plays games, but not Xbox games, though I'm actually working on writing a ton of macros to self install and uninstall games and and a few master control scripts for all that. The only thing missing is all the games and scripts.
I won't advertise here. I'll just say that before my house fire, I had one working. It's been a few years and I have to start over, and Vista is proving more onerous to automate. IF YOU ARE INTERESTED in the project (so I know there's an audience) or helping out, PM me.
And again, I hope my note about how to make it work in Vista helped someone.

Just wanted to say that I couldn't get my Launcher to work for the life of me and THIS turned out to be the fix. I thought I was taking crazy pills! Letting you know that you did help someone
As an additional note, I ran XBMC in administrator mode just one time and then turned it off, and now Launcher permanently works.
