I find the easiest way to install is to:-

1. Backup python Plugins(C:\OSGeo4W64\apps\qgis\python\plugins for
   Python Plugins)
2. Delete the OSGEO4W folder
3. If you have other versions of the software installed via standalone
   installers, uninstall all the Programs (QGIS,GRASS, SAGA etc)
4. Run a search for QGIS and delete any other folders (besides your
   Backup...be careful)
5. If you don't have ccleaner or similar install it, click on Registry
   (Left icon second from top), Scan for issues & then Fix selected
   issues, repeat untill there are no issues.
6. Download most recent version of OSGEO4W installer (not standalone
   QGIS installer see  http://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo4w/ )
7. Do a standard Desktop instillation, It will install QGIS GRASS SAGA
   and uDig, R should also be installed (Im open to correction)
8. When you have finished over wright the plugins folder with the backup.
9. Now you may have some issues initially, but redirecting is easy
   enough, just direct everything to the corresponding OSGEO4W folder.

This is what I remember having to do with my last instillation, I cant currently verify the above, as I don't have sufficient rights on my Work PC at present.

Regards,

Richard.

Hi,

maybe your paths are mixed up from all those different updates and versions you installed. From my experience, updating versions of QGIS rarely runs smoothly, so I always make "tabula rasa". Under Windows, I uninstall everything connected with QGIS remove/rename the .qgis2 folder and delete all registry entries of QGIS with regedit.

When reinstalling, I found the OSGEO4W-installer with advanced install mode had the best results (but harder to understand).

If you want to go this way, be sure to write down all the plugins you would like to have, save own scripts or model etc. to a safe place.

You might still have problems when your paths in the Windows enviroment variables are twisted as well.

Just my 2cents. If other know better ways to solve those problems, please comment.

Cheers

    Hello to all

    I am a great admirer  of QGIS but I have a serious problem and I
    hope that there is someone that can help me. I started working
    with QGIS 2.2 (Valmiera) and it worked OK.  I then (tried to)
switched to QGIS 2.4 but then GRASS, SAGA and R stopped working. I have a laptop Windows 7 64 bit and a desktop Windows XP 32 bit.
    The phenomenons are the same.

    Installing it as a standalone or with OSGeo4W gave the same results.

    These are the problems:

    GDAL: OK it woks

     For *GRASS 6 and 7*: Missing dependency. This algorithm cannot be
    run :-(

     This is for *SAGA and TauDEM* : Ooooops. The following output
    layers could not be open

    Channel Network C: /and a log path /...........................

    The above file(s) cannot be opened, which probably indicates that
    they were not correctly produced by the  executed algorithm.

    *For R*: Missing dependency. This algorithm cannot be run :-(

    * Orfeo Toolbox*:

    OTB folder not configured. Please configure before running OTB
    algorithms.

    (This also didn't work in QGIS 2.2 but I didn't bother with his).

    In the Processing->Options->Providers the paths for

    GRASS 6.4.3 was  C:/OSGeo4W64/apps/grass/grass-6.4.3/etc/grass-run.bat

    and for MSYS

    C:/OSGeo4W64/apps/msys/msys.bat

    This is wrong because I installed a standalone version and there
    is no OSGeo4W64 folder.

    I corrected the paths for both and pressed OK. I opened the
    Providers once again and saw that the two path were converted to
    the "original" ones that I "changed"; there is no way I can change
    the paths set up during the installation

    There is also a path for GRASS 7, but this was not installed.

    I have the impression that parameters for the Providers is from
    the previous installation through OSGeo4W - the previous installation.

    I truly believe that I did not uninstall or  delete a file (I also
    think that the first time I did not uninstall but just deleted
    QGIS) that determines such behavior because I also noticed the
    following:

    When I install QGIS (any version) and install some plugins (which
    I would never use - as a test) and open the toolbox with several
    providers and when I uninstall this version and install it once
    again I find that the same plugins are installed and the toolbox
    is opened exactly the same as I left it in the previous installation.

    I am not a computer wiz but just a humble geologist who wants to
    use software for my work.

    Help - or explanation how to correct this would be most welcome.

    Regards

    Dr. Strumberger
