Hi All.
I been looking thru the forum but I did not find anything matching my problem. I just bought Dune 2. The price was great so I took a chance. I tried Dune 2 before as demo and it worked fine. Now I bought the real thing but I cant install it. I downloaded the file and unpacked it. When I double click the file to start installation nothing happens. When I open task manager I can see that 3 instances of Dune 2 installation.exe is running, which is very strange. There should only be one instance. Besides from that I cant kill these processes in the task manager. The only thing I can do is to restart the computer. I use Windows 7 pro 64bit. I have many other vst plugins and I never had problem to install anything before. Any ideas to what can be wrong?
Merry Christmas

Re: DUNE 2 installation problem in Windows 7 64 proIt is looks like windows problem. Try run instalation as administrator, if not help, try change setting in user control (in windows) I am sorry I dont know how it is called in english I dont have english in Windows. And if nothing help, try deactivate antivirus and firewall.
Re: DUNE 2 installation problem in Windows 7 64 proI just tried the latest installer in Win 7 64 Bit and it worked fine but still installed the AAX version even though I don't have Pro Tools installed. The installer gives you a choice where to install the 32, 64, and AAX versions but no option to bypass installing any versions you don't want. This is with the installer downloaded yesterday after Marcin announced the issue was fixed. The installers are all numbered 2.5 so it's hard to tell what version you really have......
Re: DUNE 2 installation problem in Windows 7 64 proThanks for your advice guys. I tried your suggestions. It turned out that my paid version of AVAST antivirus was blocking the installation. AVAST will scan the file prior to running it and that's where everything seems to have gone wrong. Once I turned off the AVAST everything worked as its supposed to. I am still a bit confused because this has never been a problem before. But its a lesson learned for me. I am happy Dune 2 is working now. What a great plugin!
Re: DUNE 2 installation problem in Windows 7 64 pro
Once you don't have ProTools, please remove the folder "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Avid" and then installer should not show AAX version anymore. Actually the new installer may shows the AAX item due to the previous installation and the mentioned folder existence.
Re: DUNE 2 installation problem in Windows 7 64 proThis was the first time I installed 2.5 on that system. I've never had Pro Tools installed but do have a couple of plugins that installed AAX versions. So Dune 2 looks for the Avid folder not the Pro Tools program itself. Not a big deal to simply delete the AAX and 32 bit versions. But it wouldn't hurt to have the option in your installer to choose what versions we want installed. A lot of installers do give us the option to choose usually by the use of check boxes.
