Installation Incomplete

Rhino 5 will not completely install on my new laptop. The Localization directory is missing. I have tried installing Rhino 5 both as a download and from the Rhino 5 disc multiple times.

I have also tried downloading and separately installing the Language Pack. It shows up as installed but no directory and associated contents.

I have uninstalled everything Rhino and reinstalled several times.

Rhino 5 is currently installed on my desktop and was previously installed on my now dead laptop.

Help!

Hi David- please try right click and ’ Run as administrator’ on the installer. Also, make sure Windows is fully up to date.

@pascal "Windows 8.1 is up to date, latest updates installed earlier today.

Run as administrator" produced the same result.

My recollection is the original installation on the laptap may have been with a service release download rather than the full download. Did that set something in the register or in a hidden file which is causing the problem?

@John_Brock do you have an idea?

How do I remove all traces of Rhino from the laptop, files, registery, etc?

I appear to have “fixed” the problem by the crude method of copying the Localization directory and subdirectories from my desktop.
