Probem installing 4.2 over 4.0

Post by kalgon »

Hi,

I was trying to upgrade from 4.0 to 4.2 and the installer each time got stuck on "uninstalling previous versions" (progress bar was not moving for 15 minutes and I killed the process).

So, I've uninstalled 4.0 through "Programs and Features" but the installer keeps trying to uninstall previous versions first and get stuck.

Is there anything I can do to prevent the installer to uninstall previous versions (delete some files, registry keys...)?

Thanks,

Xavier

No idea, I suppose PowerShell is somehow broken on your system.

You can grab the .msi package directly from the downloads section instead of using the .exe installer.
