can't update

Firestorm1 · 05-09-2013, 03:11 PM

I recently tried to update Calibre 0.9.11 to 0.9.29 and after I downloaded the update file and tries to run it I got a message stating "This installation package could not be opened. Contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid Windows Installer package." I still have the file but can't open it. Can you help?

Sounds as if you have a corrupt download. You might want to clear your browsers cache and try again. Alternatively try the alternative download link.

Thanks to all for the advice. I just updated to Calibre 0.9.30 with no problems. Again, thank you!
