[Dev-C++] Re: Windows Failure on Package Install

[<F14...@ao...>]

Well, this is pretty weird.
       I did the uninstall delete dance, reinstalled 4.9.8.0, and went to 
vUpdate. The Anouncement was "Download the new version from the Dev Cpp website, 
this one is to old". It was right, the vUpdate package was 4.9.8.3. So I 
downloaded the update for 4.9.8.7, and use the WebUpdater. One of the Packages was 
for 4.9.8.7! So I'm thinking, why would I need an update for a version I 
already have? I download it to be on the safe side, along with the debug info, and 
It installs without a problem. However, only the debug info installed, but the 
update disapeared from the list. So I try my luck again and download the new 
PackMan. It crashes..  another blue screen of death. Sorry for the long post.

You didn't delete the old .cfg and .ini files. Go to the search prompt, =
and type in devcpp.cfg. Search for it, delete it. DO the same with =
devcpp.ini. Then, reinstall.
