Installation Problem: Cannot Update System File [Resolved]
Hello Guys...
I run installation but Setup ask for reboot in order to update system file. After reboot, it happens all over again. It looks like the Setup cannot update system file. The setup message as below;
Setup cannot continue because some system file are out of date on your system. Click OK if you would like setup to update these files for you now. You will need to restart Windows before you can run setup again. Click cancel to exit setup without updating system files
What should I do?
Thank you,

Are you trying to install VB6? What is the file that is causing problems?
Are you using an Administrative account? That would cause a similar problem.

Below more info about my problem;
-It is not VB6 setup file. It is my software. I use Package & Deployment Wizard to create that setup file
-I use VB6 for programming
-I was installing it into WindowsXP version 2002. I faced this problem for one PC only. Other PC does not give any problem.

So it is VB6 ... ;) ... btw P&DW was written in VB as well and you most like have the project that it's based on. Here is the default path (if you're interested of course):
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VB98\Wizards\PDWizard\Setup1\Setup1.vbp

Woww..!! Now I know about this!!
So, it means that, we can create our own P&DW?

Thats correct. I would suggest you make a backup copy of the project before you attempt to
make any modifications to it. ;)
