When I try to install the current version (0.6.13 from 2009-Sep-18 22:03:49), I get following error:

I'm using Windows XP, SP3.
As recommended I uninstalled my previous version (0.6.5).
I downloaded it again. I rebooted my computer. The error still occurs.

I wionder if you have got a corrupt/incomplete download?

kovidgoyal · 09-20-2009, 12:35 PM

Yeah that error is typically an indication of a corrupted download.

I tried the download again with another browser. And I still get the error.
The URL I use is https://dev.mobileread.com/dist/kovi...bre-0.6.13.exe
Maybe there is something wrong with the https connection.
I will try tomorrow from an other computer.

I downloaded following the link in the post, uninstalled the old version and installed the new one with no problems. My systems is WXP Pro SP2.

Well, on the second computer the download and installation process worked.
Now I will try the downloaded file on the problem machine.
