Error 1606...

[Psychotech]

I tried searching for this in other threads with no luck, so here goes.

I just tried to install GB-PVR v9.310 and received the following error...

Error 1606 Could not access network location
%USERPROFILE%\Favorites\

The install backs out and quits. I then tried using v9.211 and got the same error. All of my user profiles contain a favorites folder.

Any fixes or workarounds?

Thanks.

Sorry, I've never heard of this one before, so I dont have a resolution for you.

Is your provide on a network drive?

No, it's not on a network drive. Just plain'ol C:\

Psychotech.
Is your XP/W2K UK/US-version or some localized version?
If '\favorites' is hard-coded to setup, it will not work on localized versions properly.
My FI version has the same problem, but US/UK version on work computer has no problems at all.
Here's some help for those who dare to use regedit:

Sub: I'd check that no systemfolder is hardcoded, if this problem hasn't shown earlier.

To check what %USERPROFILE% is, go to a command prompt
(Start - Run - CMD )
type in set and hit enter.

It will be one of the last things listed, they are listed a-z
Mine says
USERPROFILE=C:\Documents and Settings\xxx where "xxx" is my username.
