NO JOY in installing the Flex 2.01 update. 

I TRIED installing the Flex 2.01 update. My configuration is Windows 
XP SP2 and I was running Flex Builder 2.0 (Educational Version). I 
downloaded the Windows update from here: 
http://www.adobe.com/support/documentation/en/flex/2/install.html 
(144 MB download).

After the download completed, I ran the downloaded file (named 
flexbuilder2_201updater.exe) and went through the process of 
installing FlexBuilder 2.01. The installer needed to restart my 
computer before completing the process. After my computer restarted, 
I expected to see the installer tell me it was finished. But I never 
got any more messages from the installer.

So, after waiting a few minutes, I ran Flex Builder. Still said 2.0 
on the splash screen. I went to Help - Product Details and then 
clicked on Feature Details and saw that my Flex Builder 2 Core is 
2.0.143459 and so is my Flex Builder 2 Standalone.

However, when I try to open one of my Flex projects I get an error 
message!!! The MXML editor is not available!!!

So I closed Flex Builder and ran the download again. Only now I get 
the message that an existing Flex Builder installation was not found 
and the installer will not run!!!

I'm now going to try reinstalling the original software!!! I knew I 
should NOT have tried to do this on a Friday afternoon.

Anyone else have a problem or success in installing the update?
