    Hello

    I am re-installing CS4 Design Premium (on Windows 7 Home Prem), but the file I have all my downloaded files bought in (I didn't buy the CD) all files .exe and .7z but not setup.exe.

    Last week, I ran all the .exe, and once they had finished, I rebooted, hoping that maybe the setup.exe can run at startup. Nothing happened, so I went back to install/uninstall and cliked in uninstall, I cancelled, then install window came. Strange, but I went with it. Installation completed, but with errors. I needed to move on to a project, so I was able to run Dreamweaver and Fireworks, but yesterday Illustrator had a fatal error (in his first inning).


    I uninstalled again, but this time cannot deceive the uninstall program to run Setup again.

  • Problem Win7: Device driver (* .inf) within the distribution is not installed in setup.exe. Why?

    Hi people,

    We have a device driver (* .inf) to our application that is added to our distribution , we create in CVI. In the past we did copy the *.inf in the /dossier inf directly (using the distribution Installer "files"-Tab "").

    Recently, we have followed the guidelines described in "Using LabWindows/CVI to install your device .inf files.

    So we have now chosen a significant subdirectory of our application as the destination folder for the file *.inf instead of directly copy in the system directory.

    Everything works well (besides the fact that our driver has no signature and needs user interaction), while using Windows XP.

    DIFxApp (run MsiProcessDrivers) recognizes the *.inf file and installs the device driver.

    After completing successfully the setup.exe, the specified *.inf has been duplicated as oem*.inf/pnf under /INF.

    But under Windows 7 the *.inf is not installed. I ran "setup.exe/l * v" for the information of the installation log file.

    And I found this article:

    MSI (s) (8:9 C) [13:56:41:043]: jumping action: MsiProcessDrivers (the condition is false)
    Of course the step of installing the drivers is ignored.

    Choose the /INF in the folder target to the *.inf (which does not work on Windows XP) everything works fine.

    Does anyone know why MsiProcessDrives is ignored in Windows 7? It is always ignored or I do something wrong?

    Help is appreciated!

    Thank you!

    Philipp

    PS. : The device driver *.inf was written for several OS (XP, Vista, Win7) target according to Microsoft guidelines for this. So it of a universal *.inf file and can be used in each operating system from XP to Win7.

    Good,

    I solved the problem myself.

    The problem is related to the DIFxApp.dll , which is available as 32-bit and 64-bit version.

    In my case, I created the distribution as the 32-bit version. That's why 32-Bit DIFxApp.dll is merged into the MSI file that is not compatible with Windows 7 (64-bit).

    This is why NOR added to this CustomAction Condition (NOT VersionNT64) for MsiProcessDrivers, which is perfectly adapted to the species but of by not having is not the *.inf file

    installed in Win7. I guess the distribution building like Release64 it will use the 64-bit Version of DIFxApp.dll. I'm not able to verify that (still works on XP).

    But then it will probably crash on XP.

    But anyway. We have a distribution for the two BONES.

    Quick & dirty solution I figured out:

    -Edit-> files distribution: Add the *.inf file to C:\window\inf

    -Manually add VersionNt64 condition in the resulting MSI file under component -> (you can use the ORCA editor for this)

    So now, in the case of XP, the *.inf file gets installed by DIFxApp.dll.

    Windows 7 using the *.inf is copied directly in the windows/inf folder and installs automatically the first time that the device is connected.

    I guess you can merge DIFxApp.dll (32 bit) and DIFxApp.dll (64-bit) to the MSI and manage things together, create conditions. But it is not quickly implemented. At least for me is not...

  • Error 'setup.exe has stopped working' when installing Quicken.

    Original title: setup.exe has stopped working

    I have read through the related forums and don't think I've seen a solid answer to this problem.  I'm trying to reinstall Quicken on my Dell Inspiron 530 Vista with service pack 2.  (Long and ugly tells how he got deleted at first - thank you, Intuit).

    When I try to install Quicken, I get the above error message.  I tried the clean boot solution; I tried to enter the installation and execution of the exe directly from there; I tried to do a right click to open/run as administrator... etc.

    I have NOT run BigFix.com or other third-party software to solve this problem - I'm very comfortable with another piece of software download and throw into the equation.  What is a corrupted registry and I have TO run third to fix?  Is it a bug of Vista - is there a fix of bug for her?

    I really don't like that to 'guilty' at this point, I just want to repair and recover my electronic payments!  Help, please!

    Hey, Keenon,.

    Please, remove all existing components of Quicken from the computer and do a fresh install.

  • Cannot install my Photoshop 7 again. The setup.exe looks dead.

    I can't install my Photoshop 7 again. The setup.exe file appears dead. The CD sounds great.

    I reinstalled a new version of Win. XP Pro Sp3 and it wiped out many of my programs, so I have been re - install. Of course, I lost the registry and have to build a new by reinstalling my programs. But my Photoshop 7 CD seems to have a dead setup.exe file and he won't answer as before. I tried everything including turning off virus program. I don't know what else to do. Maybe I need a new setup.exe file but I have no idea where I might get one.

    Yes, I have a registered product. Can someone help me?

    Thank you, Judi

    Thanks a lot for your suggestion R_Kelly.

    Yes, I had tried to copy the contents of the Setup disk to both my external Seagate drive and the right on the C: drive, itself, but without success.

    But I just live a miracle and installed like butter - to my total surprise.  I will share my experience in case where someone Vienna with a similar problem and maybe help them my situation.

    When I installed the "rescue disk" to replace my whole OS on my laptop, technicians had given me a choice in the options that I didn't really know how to choose, and I've been an IT professional at the end of the 1990s. That's where I got in trouble. What I wanted to do, it was just to crush my Windows XP Pro SP3, as we do in the 'old days' when computers were free and not all the owners. When I chose to remove the current Windows partition to make room for the new facility, apparently she also deleted the registry and my computer had no knowledge of the programs I had installed and I had to reinstall just about everything.   I thought I was okay with that.

    Finalizing the installation of the new Windows OS, I was asked to give my computer a 'name '.  Well, I do remember that I never gave a name before and there was no place for me to go to discover. So, I gave her a name 'JudiLenova '.  When I couldn't have my programs to run, I thought that maybe I had lost not only my registry file, but maybe some ini files I had left do not recognize this name, so I changed it to "Judi", still don't not Recalling that, if necessary, the name I had given him before.  As I met problems with trying to install Photoshop, I watched my systems directories and saw that there was equal files in two different ways, one for each name. I was wondering if perhaps BACK, which cannot make decisions, could not decide which way was the right one to find files, I needed. Of course, I wish not to use the option "repair" on the hot spare, but it was too late. I need this computer to use all the tools I have installed on it.

    I bought a program powerful fixit recommended by CNET to fix things and he has found more than 1400 problems but still nothing solved this problem.

    One thing I noticed is that sometimes when I do a restart of the computer, Windows Installer suddenly would show complete installation of Photoshop, but then he'd stop initialization because of the recovery. (So close and yet so far!)  I knew that the old system was over and stupidly I had deleted the full backup that I had stored on the Seagate, then I looked at the option 'restore' to see what thresholds it was to see if maybe I could go back to a bygone era. The only restore point, that I had was for the day that I had installed the hot spare. I said "what the heck" and opted to make it back. When I made this choice, I received the message that the major change would be that the name of the computer would change "Judi" to "JudiLenova."  I thought it might solve some of my problem. Surprisingly, it seems to have solved the problem of Photoshop because I put the disc in my drive D: and wide, she went without a hitch!

    My hunch is that BACK could not find the Install Shield to activate the installation. Whatever the cause of the miracle, I am grateful that I didn't not throw my computer in the Lake outside my window... but of course, it was tempting.

    Thanks again for your attempts to rescue me. I hope this helps the guy next door happens.  Now, I'll try to install the rest of my beloved old programs Adobe and everything.   Fingers crossed!

    Judi :-)
