Thanks for the response! That got me an error message:
The procedure entry point GetProcessId could not be located in the dynamic link library KERNEL32.DLL So I would guess it must be the issue you describe. Looking forward to the fixed setup program.

Ralf can you plz create a new one? But I wonder why there's no error message. Can you try to unpack kdewin-installer.exe with upx (upx.sf.net) and run it again? At least then we should see an error message. Christian _______________________________________________ Kde-windows mailing list [email protected] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-windows
