I suspected that it was a compressed but proprietary file in the Lunix world
that I know but do not master!

A nice discovery thanks to you in the Windows world since it is enough to use a
well-known 7-zip freeware program. First we obtain a *.tar file then in second
decompression the Digikam directory directly usable!

1000 Thanks Gilles for this discovery !

Sorry for this inconvenience ! subject closed.

Congratulations to you and to all the team working on this application for your
responsiveness in fixing bugs and its final quality !

Best regards,

Jean-Paul

fine

There is nothing in database registry, but probably some temporary files stored
by the installer.

Yes. this is what's the installer do in background.

Well the stand alone compressed archive of digiKam binary for Windows already
exists and is published with the release. Look these files:

digiKam-8.0.0-Win64.tar.xz
digiKam-8.0.0-Win64-debug.tar.xz

... from the official download url

I nevertheless tested digiKam-8.0.0-Win64.exe on a different PC but also using
Windows 10. The latter installed correctly. It is true that the installation
from a previous version of DigiKam in service has not been interrupted.

Does the installation program leave information in the Registry or in temporary
directories which would remain in the state after a sudden stop?
On the PC whose installation was impossible, I deleted DigiKam from the
Programs folder.

Then I did a Copy / Paste of the DigiKam directory of the PC whose installer
digiKam-8.0.0-Win64.exe in the recalcitrant PC … and version 8.0.0 seems to
work perfectly.

Windows and its locks are the cause. Like you, I find it abnormal to have to
pay to provide an open source application to this proprietary operating system.
There may be another solution: Propose a compressed file without an installer
from the directory…

I let you decide.

Best Regard,

Jean-Paul Eby

The virus is windows, not digiKam. This last one is fully cross compiled under
Linux. there is no windows at all build the installer.

More seriously, Windows Defender is a waste of time. It claim that digiKam is
not recognized because the installer is not compiled and registered with the
Microsoft tool and a developer account (you must pay as Apple). So no way i
refuse to pay to provide an open source application to this $$$ proprietary
operating system.

You can try instead the M$ Visual C++ compiled version here, not official and
lack few important features as the Mysql/mariadb support.

Thanks Maik !

"You can respond in the dialog to continue."

That's what I did but after that nothing happened.

This problem appeared after a requested update in version 7.10.0 which was
discontinued...

Since impossible to use the installer even the digiKam-8.0.0-Win64-debug.exe

Even by disabling windows defender!

in the father fire windows no blocking on digikam...

This also happened with previous versions. You can respond in the dialogue to
continue. Microsoft only learns when several users have given their ok, then
this message does not appear. The installer is not signed.
