linuschap Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 I am having issues installing either 1.6 or 1.7 because the installer keeps asking me to point to the msi file of 1.5 which I have already removed. How can I get around this issue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speaker Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 Is 1.5 currently installed? If it is, can you uninstall it by hand first? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMartyJoy Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 I'd like to add that if 1.5 was already removed you may want to use something like cc cleaner to check the registry. May just be a key lingering around making the new version think it has to uninstall the old version first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linuschap Posted May 5, 2015 Author Share Posted May 5, 2015 What do you mean by 'uninstall by hand'? Just removing files from Program Files dir? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Kaufman Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 This may be a slightly different problem, but I also can't install 1.7 from the Windows msi package (tried both x64 and x86). Here's the error that I get: [quote]This installation package could not be opened. Verify that the package exists and that you can access it, or contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid Windows Installer package.[/quote] I've already upgraded my Ubuntu server installation and uninstalled (per the recommendation above) the previous Windows client. I'm trying to take advantage of the SSL encryption. What is my recourse here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Kaufman Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 Also, I went through and manually deleted all registry keys related to Synergy, with the exception of the firewall rules (I really don't want to set that up again!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Kaufman Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 Sorry, false alarm. Restart fixed the problem. I love Windows! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
