I have problems installing picasa. On some installs, i was able to install picasa without problems. But on some installs, i can't install later versions of picasa, only older versions. If i do update, picasa will stop working.

The error message given is "current user is not allowed to install or update applications"

i am always runing with uac off. Tried all versions of lite, i keep reinstalling every time there is newer version.

Hi again, I am still having problems when installing picasa.

I vlited with 1.1.1, and tried picasa, right after I fnished installing. I did not disable any services, just did Windows Update. I think it must be something i removed.

Can i send you list of removals?

Windows Picture and Fax Viewer (Shimgvw) <-- don't remove this as it has been known for a long time (in nLite at least) that the related service is needed for alot of graphics related programs and apps. So it just goes to follow that removing this will kill picasa and adobe.

OK I got picasa to work!! :thumbup

I don't know exactly what was the problem, but I left folowing components:

Recomended - scanners and cameras

Windows Image Acquisition

Windows Photo Gallery

Distributed Link Tracking Client

Distributed Transaction Coordinator (DTC)

Error Reporting

Interactive Services Detection

IP Helper

IPsec Policy Agent

Microsoft DFS Replication

Offline Files

Protected Storage

Quality Windows Audio Video Experience

Volume Shadow Copy

WebDAV (WebClient)

IMAPIv2 Burning Support

Jet Database Engine

MDAC

Can anyone help me figure out which components are needed for Picasa? And whitch are not needed?

And maybe add an picasa item in software support in Vlite?

Working ini attached

Thanks!

edit: just scanners and cameras seem to be enough.
