  • install does not work on XP 'installation package could not be opened'

    hi all,


    My Problem : i downloaded version 3.33
    wanted to install it but following error occurred :


    "This installation packet could not be opened.Verify that the
    packet exists and that you can access it, or contact the
    application vendor to verify that this is a valid Windows
    Installer Package."


    i didn't install any burn software and i also tried the solution
    with 'all permissions for everybody' in my temp folder.'


    My Hardware: AMD Athlon XP1800+
    K7s5a Elitegroup
    Geforce 3 ti 200


    Please help me,
    haze

    First, try redownloading the seutp. Next, extract the setup files to your desktop. Try to run both setup.exe and daemon.msi.

        After you see error message, check temp folder (C:\documents and settings\user\local settings\temp or C:\windows\temp) for daemon.msi. Copy this file to you desktop and run it directly.

          doesn't work ! before reinstalling Windows Xp it hard worked...

          perhaps it was an older version of daemon tools

            Has nothing to do with XP. I have been running XP for almost 2 years now (since the Oct 2001 release of it) and have been using Daemon tools since before that - no problems whatsoever.

            Check to see that your temp folder is relatively free of junk - use the disc cleanup that comes with XP - it is very good.

            Also, if you are using a download manager that breaks files into parts, try downloading it without the download manager - he manager may be the culprit here - I had an older copy of download accelerator, and it used to corrupt files every now and again - I ran the update and found I was 3 minor revisions behind the current - and haven't had a problems since.

              Operating System: winXP
              Burning Software: none yet, but will be using Nero
              Anti-virus Software: None
              DAEMON Tools Version: 3.41

              yo, same thing happened to me bro... here's what i did to fix it. Goto your contol panel/ folder options / view files, check view hidden files and folders. Now goto C:\Documents and Settings\User\Local Settings\Temp\daemon\

              and run the install.exe

              Worked for me, hope it helps!
