Hey Ken, Yes - you're late to this party. But, in this case - you are never too late.
Seems like you are having a similar issue to what was experienced here. I just spoke to our systems guy - who fixed the issue on our end. So - here's what he did... He went into Control Panel - and went to where you can do a Repair to VFP - and by running the Repair - that fixed the problem. You can probably do the Same thing to fix your own issue. Goodluck & God Speed! :-) Also - TGIF! -K- -----Original Message----- From: ProfoxTech [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Ken Dibble Sent: Friday, July 24, 2015 11:38 AM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: Strange User Problem - VFP Attempting Install! >By the way - with this strange issue, what pops up is something that >looks like its trying to install Visual FoxPro (as shown in the >original Image links).

I realize this is a very late response, but I would just like to mention that I recently have seen this very thing in two completely different contexts on my home computer: Win 7 SP1 Ultimate 32-bit 1. Whenever I run an audio-editing program called MP3Gain, I get the exact same "Installing VFP" windows. I have to click the "CANCEL" button on them four or five times to make them go away, and then the program will run. If I don't click "CANCEL", I get "Internal Error [some number]", and MP3Gain does not run. This occurs both under a restricted local user account, and a Domain Administrator account, so it's not permissions-related. 2. In the VFP 9 SP1 IDE, again on my home computer, I recently ran the Code References Tool for the the first time. I got the VFP Install window when I tried to run it, and after clicking all the cancels, I was able to start a search. As soon as I started the search, the VFP Install windows appeared again. After canceling them all again, the search completed normally. As in the first scenario, if I don't keep hitting cancel, I get "Internal Error [some number]" and Code References doesn't do what I asked it to do. Also as in the first scenario, it doesn't matter what permissions I run VFP under. And everything else in the VFP IDE runs fine. I suspect this is some form of MS Windows Installer corruption, since this is occuring in two completely unrelated programs. And I am afraid to mess with anything because I don't want to end up having to completely uninstall VFP (and that would mean combing the Registry for leftover bits) and reinstall it, and MP3Gain, and perhaps downloading and installing a new copy of Windows Installer, after all of which I may still end up having to delete and re-create my profiles. But just to let you know. Something systemic is definitely messed up here.
