SDC not working with Vista 5744

Sunday, November 12, 2006 by MSethWeisberg | Discussion: Object Desktop

I am trying to download and install the newest Objectdock on vista but it won't install.  SDC just keeps redownloading the install file without ever extracting anything.

Any suggestings?

This is the third post about OD not installing via SDC.

I'll bet that you are getting an error about the file size not matching. Post end of the log located here: C:\Program Files\Stardock\SDCentral\Installed\odp.log (or od.log if you don't have the plus).

Let's see what it says.

Change the server in SDC. Go to internet settings and there is a pulldown. I chose the California server and it fixed my issue, (which was exactly like yours and had been like this for 2 days.)

FIX THE DISTRO, GUYS
