Language Pack Installation a total nightmare on Windows 7
... just like File Transfer and Explorer crashing constantly!
Been the whole day trying to get the Spanish Language pack installed ion this my wife's Windows machine, should have bought her a mac - I knew Windows was asking for trouble!
What I have tried so far:
1) downloading a .Net cleanup tool and manually deleting failed .Net 4 installations that update reied installing... Following 4 attempts to install the language pack via the updater I thought this might be the culprit... but having since been able to update all the failed .Net 4 fixes, this is obviously not the proplem!
2) Downloading and trying a manual install having done a dll cleanse via ccleaner between step one and this... Still nothing doing!
3)Attempted installs following a selective start up, clean boot and safe mode start... still nothing doing
4) expanding the downloaded pack and trying to install it via the installer...
8 hours later I am pulling my hair out!
Never once got horrors like this on Mac in 6 years and with WIndows every day is a nightmare.
Please help me fix this so I can get out of hell as fast as possible and back to paradise where I can get sone real work done instead of rebooting every 5 minutes and fixing dlls and issues like this every hour!
