ZipGenius 6.3.1.2614 Install Failure

Nov 17, 2010 6:10AM PST

I'm running Vista Home Basic - all updates - on a Compaq Presario SR5214X, plenty of memory and disk space. I had no problems with ZipGenius 6.3.1.2612 . Tried to upgrade and got up to the registry change point, all installed, when it bombed out with:

Unable to register the DLL/OCX:RegSvr32 failed with exit code 0x5

then it cancelled out all the changes. tried this 3 times with no change.

Download ZipGenius again

Hello. We had server issues that corrupted our setup files for the whole afternoon (in Italy). Now everything works fine, so you can download again the update pack.
We're sorry for the inconvenience.

System Restore

See if Vista created a System Restore point before this application was installed. if so, restore back to that time, then try again with a fresh downloaded file.
