Hi

I had the same problem. The solution is to unzip it into a new directory and not to accept the default. When I unzipped it to C:\temp it worked fine. Previously it was trying to unzip the files into "c:\documents & settings....".

>Hi. I just downloaded vfp8.0 beta. After unzipping, the program said that I had some Prerequisites. Next, it said "may take a minute or two"...then it returned to the desktop. Q: how do I satisfy my prerequisites?
