Installing Second Time Gives "Invalid Install |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Solutions: The customer was installing WordPerfect onto their hard drive for a second time in order to make backup copies of the files. Upon installing all the disks, it came to the point of selecting and copying the printer. After the question "Do you want to install another printer" the user responded "No" and received a message "You have specified an invalid installation path- press any key to continue." The printer was then never installed. The customer decided to try going to the directory where the program was first installed, they deleted the file WP51.INS, and then tried to re-install the program. This time everything installed correctly. Apparently, the installation program was reading the WP51.INS from the first installation and this was conflicting with the new custom installed directories. |
