Hi Guys,

in case you are interested ... When Installing and then deinstalling right afterwards, the deinstallation takes forever (running for 20 minutes now and still not finished), it seems to be a problem with the driver at least the deinstall process says "Driver is being removed" (translated from german).

Have seen this behaviour on Vistax64 with the former beta version and on Windows7x32 with this beta.

Bye,
Alex


PS: Edit: Seems like this will never end so I will stop the deinstallation process. Maybe you could have a look at it. If it is not possible to uninstall right after an install, the deinstaller should probably say so ... thanks ! :-)

To get rid of this problem, try this:

1.) Delete Windows\System32\Drivers\VClone.sys
This must be done to get rid of the faulty driver, which will hang during uninstall or upgrade
2.) Reboot your machine
3.) Install Virtual CloneDrive 5.4.2.1 beta

Feedback is welcome. Thanks!

Question

Hi James,

Q: If I have version 5.4.1.1 running already ... can I just install the 5.4.2.1 beta OR do I have to UNinstall the old version first!?!?

Thanks,

G!

Just install overtop the existing version. All Slysoft programs are designed to be installed in this manner. The only time I'm sometimes careful is with Game Jackal.

Crashes my PC when used for installing XP SP3 MSDN .iso on MS Virtual PC 2007 SP1

If I use optical drive it works fine.
