A strange bug/issue with "Merging hotfixes"

[ehaworth]

I have got all of my hotfixes into the right directories, but the process apears to hang at the Merging Hotfixes step, simply solved by one ctrl-c (i've checked the log, and it dosn't apear to be escaping out of anything that dosn't exit uncleanly).

Has anybody else come across this?

(Source CD is Windows 2000 SP4)

Yes, I've had this problem. Press A and it should continue on with the process. I'm thinking it's asking to Overwrite a file and needs input from the user, but you can't see it.

So, try A out.

Thanks for the reply, one to flag up for the GreenMachine

It has something to do with some IE hotxies in HF2 and POS. I've attached my log to identify the exact ones.

Welcome to MSFN, ehaworth!

homiebrah is on the money: you should rename the offending files to avoid this problem. It has already been flagged, and fixed, in the next version ...
