Hi,

After choosing language etc, it get's stuck on "Intalling, might take a few minutes"...
my windows version is Win 7 Ultimate 64 bit
my ie-explorer version is IE11 (11.0.9)
I've recently formatted my computer and reinstalled the OS, so everything is quite fresh and new...
Would appreciate your quink reply,
Thank you!!!
Dana
P.S. I tried to install as administrator and it didn't help.
Nor deleting temp files or redownloading the setup file
Solved!

  • Can't install skype on Windows 10

    So i upgraded to Windows 10 and afterwards started installing Skype. 
    It gives system failure (-1073741819), but it has worked for years without any problems whatsoever. Even when reinstalling numerous times. 

    Please,  run the DirectX diagnostics tool. Go to Windows Start  and in the Run box type dxdiag.exe and press the OK button. This will start the DirectX diagnostics program. Run this diagnostics and save the results to a file. Please, attach this file to your post. Be aware that you will have to zip this file before attaching it here.

  • Can install "Skype for Windows" and "Skype for Bus...

    Hi! All,
    "Skype for Business" has been installed into my office PC.
    I would like to know that I can install "Skype for Windows" into this same PC or not?
    Is there any conflict in using between these two editions on same PC?
    Thanks!

    I have had both installed for months.  I have not run into any problems with them both being present.  I could see there being an issue if you plan to accept a call if you are on another call with the opposite client (since the mic/playback hardware would already be in use).

  • HT201468 Can I install on MacBook Windows 32-bit version

    Can I install on MacBook Windows 32-bit version?  I went through the installation and when I try to run the update on Windows (due to no internet access) I receive a comment that the Windows and Boot Camp Windows update don't agree? I downloaded Windows update through Boot Camp process?

    From the same link posted earlier,
    Mac model
    Windows 8 64-bit
    Windows 7 64-bit
    Windows 7 32-bit
    Windows Vista 64-bit
    Windows Vista 32-bit
    Windows XP 32-bit
    MacBook Pro

    You can install W7 32-bit, but you will need to use Boot Camp Support Software 4.0.4033 drivers. You will need to run Bootcamp Assistant 4 from an older version of OSX. You can install OS X: Installing OS X on an external volume - Apple Support which has BCA 4.x and then install W7 32-bit.

  • Unable to install Skype on Windows 8.1

    Can anyone suggest solutions for installing Skype on Windows 8.1?  After installing it, I've tried using the Echo/Test Call service or Skypeing a friend.  However, each time, I receive the following error: "Skype has stopped working.  A problem caused the problem to stop working correctly.  Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available") I've tried to install Skype V7.7.85.  My Acer Ultrabook PC was bought new in mid-March 2015.  I've been working with Microsoft's tech support today (2 sessions each took 1.5 hours each).  So far to troubleshoot the issue they did the following: 1. Ran Malwarebytes - Anti-Malware.  Cleaned up my computer's registry, ran Computer Clean-up.2. Installed the latest Windows Updates.3.  Tried several times (about 3) to uninstall and re-install Skype.  They included the Click-To-Call option during the installation.4. Re-ran Malwarebytes-Anti-Malware.  No problems were detected.5. The tech support person suggested that he reset my entire PC and install Windows 10. As I'm loathe to have to do this (as this sounds like all Windows users who want to use Skype would need to upgrade their OS to Windows 10, which sounds rather odd), I thought I'd ask if anyone knows of a solution to this Skype installation problem? Thanks!

    Please, run the DirectX diagnostics tool (32-bit). Run dxdiag.exe (Start - Run or Win key +R) then press enter or click "OK". Once the diagnostics completes, "Save All information..." to a text file. Please, attach this file to your post. Be aware that you will have to zip this file before attaching it here.
    (i.e. compress DxDiag.txt ---> DxDiag.zip)

  • Can't install itunes on windows 7 machine. I keep getting A message stating that I don't meet min. requirements, but the machine has more than enough. What do I need to do to correct this?

    Can't install itunes on windows 7 machine. I keep getting A message stating that I don't meet min. requirements, but the machine has more than enough. What do I need to do to correct this?

    Are you trying to install the 32-bit version on a 64-bit machine, or vice versa?
    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for performance issues or compatibility with third party software.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

  • I can't install itunes for windows get error message 5

    i can't install itunes for windows get error message 5

    I've been having the same issues for the past year and a half. I've spent 6-8months trying to figure it out. Went to various Itunes stores with pictures on my Iphone per each step so I could relay all information that I'd come across and the personnel were less than helpful, after conversations that would sometimes last an hour between myself, employees and managers they always came back to "simply uninstall then reinstall" when I told them for the thousanth time that I've done that multiple times and my errors are happening while trying to reinstall it they act stumped and say "well then I'm not sure, I'll give you a call if I figure it out" and disappear. I've been very disatisfied at the lack of support from Apple and if Android to piece together a reletively reliable phone I'd switch to them in a heartbeat. I'll follow this question incase someone can answer this, but I don't have much faith.
    BTW, wifey has Windows 7 running on the laptop and my phone syncs just fine to that and no trouble with itunes, just mine (desktop).

  • Can I install WSUS alongside Windows Essentials Experience Role without killing IIS & Remote web access?

    Can I install WSUS alongside Windows Essentials Experience Role without killing IIS & Remote web access?
    I have recently installed Windows Server 2012 Essentials R2, but I want to use WSUS on the same server.  Is this possible, if so how?  Last time I tried this I lost my Remote Web Access.
    I did post this in the Windows server 2012 essentials thread but didn't get any replies so thought I'd try posting it here to see if I got any hits here?
    Is there a way to get WSUS to install to different web ports i.e. 880 & 8443?  Or can I get it to install in a new site in IIS?  Its just I know that the Essentials Experience role sets up RWA in IIS and installing the WSUS on top just overwrites
    the RWA site & settings?  I assume this is also why Remote Desktop Services does the same?
    Thanks

    http://blogs.technet.com/b/sbs/archive/2013/06/25/how-to-install-wsus-3-0-sp2-on-windows-server-2012-essentials.aspx
    Last time I tried this I lost my Remote Web Access.
    Remote Web Access uses the Default Web Site. If you install WSUS to the Default Web Site, it will break things. Install WSUS to the alternate "WSUS Administration" site on port 8530.
    Is there a way to get WSUS to install to different web ports i.e. 880 & 8443?
    No.
    Or can I get it to install in a new site in IIS?
    Just select the option during the installer to do that.
