Hi,
I install ricardo.ecn.wfu.edu/pub/gretl/gujartati_data.exe
(2015/07/15) in Windows 8.1 (Galician language) with
* 1.10.90cvs (x86_64), release 2015/07/20, under ...\Program
Files (x86)\gretl\ , and
* 1.10.90cvs (x86), release 2015/07/20, under ...\Program
Files\gretl\ .
And the tab appears in both cases and all works fine.
Cheers
Juan C.

I noticed recently that the self-extracting
(exe) installers for our textbook data packages weren't working
properly on Windows 8, with 64-bit gretl installed.
What's supposed to happen is that the exe picks up the path to
the gretl installation from the Windows registry and offers it
as the default location, but I saw the default come up empty. I
think this must be due to the fact that on 64-bit Windows there
are two versions or modes of the registry (32- and 64-bit);
apparently our (quite old) installers were just looking at the
32-bit registry and hence not finding the entry for gretl.
I've now rebuilt the installers using current Inno Setup and
tested on Windows 8. I think they should also do the right thing
on earlier (and 32-bit) Windows, but it would be nice to have
that confirmed. If anyone is able to test, please see (since SF
is down):
