[Dx4win] DX4win Updater

[John Shaw]

Not sure if this might help or be a red herring but I was almost about to
send a sorry it doesn't work.

Win7 here.  The Microsoft run-time library was not on the computer.   My
first attempt at installing the Microsoft run-time library failed, I knew it
failed because it did not complete.  It was however now in the list of
programs on the computer so I uninstalled it, rebooted the computer and with
no other programs running ran the install again, this time it completed and
now v9 of Jim's updater runs fine.  I have also installed Microsoft run-time
library and v9 of Jim's updater on an old XP laptop and it all works fine
there too. 

So am wondering if the first failed attempt installing Microsoft run-time
library was because I had other programs running on my computer.  Certainly
after the reboot and on an idle computer it installed without a problem and
that is all I did different.  No expert, could be a red herring, all I know
is now I am a happy camper again.

Not opening *how*?

1.  Did you disable your anti-virus software during installation?
2.  Did you install the Microsoft run-time library?
3.  Is the Updater allowed to access the Internet (check your firewall)
