Title: why does ultra hal need roxio cinemanow 2.0
Post by: oldfarmhand on September 05, 2017, 10:18:27 am
 I tried to download ultra hal and install it but I get an error that says it could not find  roxio cinemanow 2.0.
Why do I need it and what's it for? I use windows 10 and I can't find anything about it being used for windows 10 only windows 7

Hi Farmhand.

I never ran across your issue before, this roxio cinemanow 2.0 you mentioned, when you go to install hal the next time and get the error please take a snap shot of the error and post it for better debugging purposes.  as far as I know roxio cinemanow 2.0 is not needed with a default hal install. unless windows 10 is missing some .dll functions I don't know about.

good snap shot there, where is the Ultra Hal install panel during this roxio panel, I don't see hal being installed?
It looks like you are trying to install a different setup.exe other than HAL install package. from the snap shot that is.

be back later.

 Hi onTheCuttingEdge
I think this is what you are talking about. The only way to get out of it is to use task manager to close the ultra hal program.

I can't even begin to understand why that installation would do that farmhand. maybe Rob knows this one.

I tried to delete everything and start over. But I get the same thing I can't go any further with hal until I get this resolved.

Hi Farmhand.

Have you tried temporarily removing roxio from your system then install hal?
I also install hal in the root directory C:\Zabaware\ myself so 32 bit and 64(x86) bit plugs will work with the same directory.
Robert should of employed this directory change long ago.
CyberJedi is the one that turned me on to the directory change trick, it works well.

Code: [Select]
C:\

Root is the drive letter above, you can choose only the C:\ during installation.
