Problems ?

When trying to install, you may encounter this error message :

Possible Cause 1

This can be caused by the .air file residing on a non-local filesystem.

  • A folder on a network-mounted drive.
  • A folder on a location accessed using UNC notation.

Moving the .air file to your local desktop fixes this problem.

Possible Cause 2

This can be caused by an incompatible Adobe Air installation. To fix this problem, follow these steps :

  1. Uninstall Adobe Air via Control Panel > Programs and Features
  2. Delete remaining AIR folder in the Adobe Application Data directory :
    • C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\AIR
    • Or enter %appdata% as location in the explorer and remove the Adobe subfolder AIR
  3. Perform installation as in paragraph above.
  4. Done !
