Okay I installed Bookdesigner and it's working for me..........
Created a folder other than the default, so I made it c:/Bookdesigner
I unzipped the .msi file into that folder
Right clicked to install .msi file
After it was installed and the icons were sitting on my desktop I unzipped and extracted all files from that most recent update into that folder.
Then I double clicked to start the program, I had always gotten a weird message about an update and it will do so and so, it never made sense to me but I clicked okay, didn't have any choice, it did it's thing....... loaded up with a test book. It had the sony setup there. Loaded up a book from my books and told it to Make a book, made all 600 and whatever pages worth........
I have AUC or whatever the heck that thing is ON!
I didn't download any special files from microsoft......... I did get this new puter yesterday and I did get all the microsoft updates....
I just ran another through before I clicked post.........
It is working for me guys and gals. Did nothing special, just didn't put it in the directory it wanted to go......
