Title: Errors When Updating to 0.39.9
Post by: LemonHead2089 on July 21, 2012, 08:02:50 pm: Today I tried updating my Alt Binz program on my other laptop to version 0.39.9. This laptop has been unable to accept any version of Alt Binz higher than 0.25.0, which is what I've been running on it (OLD!!!!) Here are the error messages I receive after replacing the 0.25.0 files with the 0.39.9 files.

Running Windows Vista Home Premium SP2 x64 4GB-RAM

I always have to revert to 0.25.0 to get Alt Binz working again

Delete all config files, copy altbinz in some folder and it will work.

And if I understood correctly, once I delete those config files, I just overwrite the Alt Binz files with the latest version?

Thanks

I went to C:\Users\(USER)\AppData\Local and deleted the entire Alt Binz directory. I then upgraded to 0.39.9 and I continue to get the same error. There is still no user data under the Program Files directory

delete alt.binz folder in appdata\local and alt.binz folder in program files
I would do this if i experienced your issues

Post by: LemonHead2089 on July 31, 2012, 06:17:22 pm: Yeah I guess I'll have to stick to 0.25. Tried a fresh install of the newest version and got the same results.
Thanks anyway!

Was just thinking, you got a x64 windows and talked about "program files", move you altbinz folder to "program files (x86)", the other one always need more admin rights

wild guess but, who knows....

Post by: LemonHead2089 on August 03, 2012, 04:38:22 pm: I finally came to a conclusion. I believe the laptop is just all screwy, OS-wise (that's Vista for you). Other programs started acting up also, so I decided to do a clean wipe and install Windows XP instead, & I was able to install Alt Binz 0.39.9 flawlessly.
Thanks again for the help!
