Hi Rob, Thanks for the information - I was expecting an error regarding the DesktopFolder, but instead got this: "The installer has encountered an unexpected error installing this package. This may indicate a problem with this package. The error code is 2727. The arguments are: WindowsFolder, , " Any thoughts as to the cause ? > I find this link handy for working out what obscure error numbers mean. > http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/msi/setup/windows_installer_error_messages.asp Neat.
