Hello, all,
hello, Mac,
I could add another hint that might be useful:
First, I had the same problems as you (producing the error message
mentioned by you***).
After that, I read somewhere not to install the "Curr" installation
(see the radio buttons in the top of the setup windows), but to take
the "Exp" installation - and all worked fine!
Regarding your problems with the C:\ hardcoded, I didn't (yet)
experience this.
Kind regards
Struppi
