On a clean system (with .NET Framework installed) it reports: "The installer wa interrupted before KeePass could be installed".

    Install the portable version and make sure that works.

    cheers, Paul

    I can reproduce this; the MSI doesn't work on Windows XP (probably caused by Windows Installer not supporting the new .NET detection on XP).

    On Windows 7 and higher it works fine, so I've now added a note on the downloads page that the MSI requires at least Windows 7.

    Thanks and best regards,
    Dominik

    The mentioned note is now present on all versions' downloads pages. It may mislead users. MSI installers actually work perfectly on Windows XP for all versions up to 2.34.
