Re: Problem Installing

Yes, thank you. That worked. Used desktop to make protable copy on USB, then with the USB plugged into the notebook, opened PWP and used it to make a portable copy on the notebook's hard drive. I didn't experiment with copying the folder from the USB to the notebook's hard drive. Would that also hav...

Re: Problem Installing

Removing McAfee didn't help, nor did installling the latest update to windows 11. I think in the past that I've seen somewhere, that PWP can be installed on a usb drive.

Re: Problem Installing

Re: Problem Installing

Oh, I just realized that on trying to install I do not see the common message window saying that the installation wants to make changes to my system, and do I want to let it do so.

Re: Problem Installing

When the installation fails, an Installer Information window opens with Retry and Cancel buttons. At this point the directories \Digital Light & Color\Picture Window Pro 8\Profiles exist and the Profiles directory is empty. If I click on Retry, the window reappears. If I click on Cancel, the \Di...

Re: Precise Gaussian could be less single-minded

Yep, clicking twice works. Thanks. I guess I should be more open-minded.

Precise Gaussian could be less single-minded

Once Precise Gaussion begins, it ignores the cancel button until it is finished. This can be inconvenient if the blurring operation is going to take a while.
