FS 3.4.8 Install - At Startup Asks For ProPlusWW.msi ???
Posted: 05 Sep 2012, 18:43
On my Windows XP SP2 machine (only...Win 7 32, 64 machines) all's just fine.
Install the program. Great. Click shortcut, FreeStyler starts up, hangs for a moment in the start up to initialize screen then windows installer kicks in asking me to find and install ProPlusWW.msi (which is Windows Office 2007 Pro installer .msi). Pointed to it, clicked install, then nothing. Just sat there. No freeze up, or lock up, just sat there until I clicked cancel. Once cancelled, FreeStyler continued to load properly and was fully functional.
Wildly confused on this. Does not happen on the Win 7 32 machine, the Win 7 64 machine, or the Win XP SP2 machine that does not have Office 2007 installed.
It's no doubt something funky with Freestyle registered extensions and Windows Office 2007 Pro registered extensions but I'm far from any expert on figuring this one out.
Any help? Ideas? Workarounds?
