You don't have to do them one at a time. Use a binary search. Try half of them, then half of those (or the other half), etc. You will narrow it down faster. ___ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale

But I'm back where I started, because when I copy my plug-ins (backed up from the previous installation), the error message on launching Finale comes back. The only new plug-ins I tried recently are Jari's. So I erased all of them. No help. I then deleted all the plug-ins I remember adding (RP, TGTools, etc.). Still no help. But when I delete all the plug-ins in the folder, the error message dissapears. So, unless someone has tips to offer as to which could be the culprit, I'll have to delete them one by one, restart Finale, and see... My first guess would be Apply Human Playback or the FinaleScript plug-in, and that it might crash because of some missing file in the "Component Files" folder. But I hope you don't actually delete the plug-ins while doing the detective work of the crashing plug-in? Just drag the plug-ins out of the Plug-ins folder tree. You can drag out complete plug-ins subfolders (and reinsert one plug-ins subfolder at a time) and see when the crashing stops/starts. Then you know which of the folders that contain the crashing plug-in and can go from there Best regards, Jari Williamsson ___ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale

Even if you are logged on in an administrator account, you may have to right-click on the installer or the Finale exe file and select "Run as administrator." I couldn't get rid of PhotoShop's legal verbiage until I did that. ___ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
