Preparing to install...
 
1 Attachment(s)
Whenever i open limewire it starts loading as normal then stops doing anything and opens up a windows installer 'Preparing to install...' dialogue which never goes away until i close limewire.exe in task manager. Sometimes this happens right at the start of limewire loading and sometimes limewire seems as though it has fully loaded and has connected by the time it has come up.

I cant think of anything that could have triggered it. Ive been running limewire for a long time now and i've never had this problem before. It just suddenly started happening!

I'm running XP Pro SP2. I've tried reinstalling limewire several times and running old builds of limewire and i've reinstalled Java Runtime Enviroment. I've tried running it in NT Compatability mode. Nothing seems to work!

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers

Fix for problem
 
Hey Found a fix for this prob took like an hour or two so should save you some time.

You need to go to administration tools in control panel then events. From here you can see the error related to a windows installer file.

My problem was related to a windows installer package located in solidworks folder in program files. Deleted that folder and all good limewire functioning.

Heres a link where I found some info for solving the problem.
Windows Installer: Dealing with installation failures
actually used the vbs file as well.



Good LUck
