I.e. is the directory empty, is there probably a file beginning with miktex_freetype2, but a truncated end, or something similary? Regards - Thomas -- http://tug.org/protext/
[protext] MikTex Installation Error
Hello, This is my first exposure to Tex. I am excited to learn and try to create some documents on my own. However the installation process has had an error or two in it. I downloaded ProTex from the following link. http://mirrors.ibiblio.org/pub/mirrors/CTAN/systems/windows/protext/ I chose the file ProTeXt-2.2.1-102109.exehttp://mirrors.ibiblio.org/pub/mirrors/CTAN/systems/windows/protext/ProTeXt-2.2.1-102109.exe. No surprises there. I open the setup file. I read through it twice. I follow the installation process. I chose the basic package. Miktek is installing and then I get an error. Ok, let's try it again with the complete package: a different error this time. The errors were: The operation could not be completed for the following reasoin: Windows API error 2: The system cannot find the file specified. Details : C:\Program Files\Miktex 2.8\tpm\packages\miktex_freetype2-bin-2.8.tpm The operation could not be completed for the following reasoin: Windows API error 2: The system cannot find the file specified. Details : C:\Program Files\Miktex 2.8\tpm\packages\animate.tpm Did I download a faulty copy? Is the solution here to get another download? -Joe P.S. I created a different directory \...2.8.xo, then I ran the download a third time. I received a new error. xo -- http://tug.org/protext/
