Hi Uwe, >> At one of the last steps, a crash occured, complaining >> about a missing msvcr71.dll:
> This is now fixed in the installer version I just uploaded: > https://developer.berlios.de/project/showfiles.php?group_id=5117&release_id=12337 Yes, confirmed. Thank you! Using that new alternate installer, I also noticed that: - the console window still is there (I actually like that on slow machines ... something to watch while waiting :-) ) - the installer leaves MikTeX auto-download feature switched "on" after finish of installation (just noticed it, no complaint here) - the dictionary handling during installation works in the default "for all users" mode correctly (other than official 1.44-3 which I had problems with. Had no spare time to check out official 1.44-4 yet.) - the installer installs both English and "my computers language" (German) dictionaries, which is fine to me and certainly for completely new users, too. Great job, Uwe, thank you again. Regards, Tom Schlangen --
