Probem installing 4.2 over 4.0

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.

Thanks, installing the MSI package worked fine.
