When I installed RealPopup 2.6 Build 167 on a new system at a site that uses RealPopup for communications among users on the LAN at the site, I received the error message below:
| Error |
|---|
| C:\WINDOWS\system32\mfc71.dll The existing file is marked as read-only. Click Retry to remove the read-only attribute and try again, Ignore to skip this file, or Abort to cancel installation. [ Abort ] [ Retry ] [ Ignore ] |
I copied the existing file to another location and chose "Retry" to remove the read-only attribute on the existing file and replace it. I checked the version numbers of the one that had been on the system and the one that RealPopup placed on the system afterwards by right-clicking on the files and choosing "Properties" then "Version". The one placed on the system by RealPopup was a later version, though they are the same size. The system has Windows XP Professional Service Pack 2 installed.
