Can't run installer - brantje - 18th Nov, 2013 10:57 AM
So, at every release i'd like to do an clean install.
So i went to download the XBian installer.
I ran it as admin and got the following error:

Tbh, it's not clear at all.
New possible users will simply go to the download page on xbian.org/download and possibly never read the release post. There should be a warning on xbian.org/download stating that the installer currently isn't working (beats me why it has to take that long by the way) with a link to the workaround.

Yes, a lot better!

Windows and OSX installers are fixed now and Linux will follow soon, so closing this thread.
