October 23, 200520 yr I have noticed this software MSXML 4.0 is nstalled along with other software (i think some of my games) what is it for? why is it included in ryans pack is this really needed? Should it be added with an unnattended install?
October 23, 200520 yr Where did you see it get installed? Is there an entry in the Add/Remove programs area? Can you please be more specific? i am curious. I know what XML is and it is mostly required for software configuration files...so yes it is important but I would like to know in what context you saw it get installed.
October 23, 200520 yr Author Arlight well i acctualy have to entries in my add/removeMSXML 4.0 SP2 Parser and SDK 1.23MBMSXML4 Parser 0.06MBthe MSXML4 Parser says its part of Microsoft Game Studios. Microsoft games i have installed are Halo and Halo custom edition i also have AGE 3 demo but the MSXML4 parser was installed before i put on the demo. yea so i have just been adding this file to my unattended installs cuz i though ti was needed. but what is it for?
October 23, 200520 yr It's used for programs to be able to parse and write to XML files. I think that MSXML 3.0 is included in WinXP, but some newer programs need MSXML 4.0 installed (For me, MathCad installs it). Recommendation: If you installed it with a game, leave it.
October 26, 200520 yr Anything that uses the IE engine will use the MSHTML*.dll libraries. Outlook, for one, and Windows Explorer, for another. I wouldn't mess with those .
October 27, 200520 yr yes MSXML 4 is must for AOE3 , if uninstall MSXML you arn't able to view map in list ...Sometimes, when MSXML is installed with other version ... WindowsUpdate can't work fine ... uninstall all version , reboot and reinstall the last MSXML 4 ...Goodbye.
