Quote - Yes, it is probably a Vista quirk.

On my Vista 64 (French version), I have two different folders for program files.

One is : C: Program Files (x86), the other is named C:Programmes (in French), but it is only a display name. Its real name is C:Program Files.

When installing SkinVue and the Python scripts, it always seemed to end up in the wrong place: It created a C:/ Program Files (x86)/e-on Software/Vue 6 Infinite folder instead of installing it in the C:/ Programmes/e-on Software/Vue 6 Infinite one.

Installing it outside of any C:Program files folder and then relocating it manually worked for me.

 

Hmm, perhaps my installer program is not working correctly on Vista.  It is supposed to prompt you for a location to install the wxPython files.  The default location is wherever your $ProgramFiles/E-ons Software folder is.  Perhaps it's not picking this up on Vista.  At least it is installing the correct platform of wx (either 32-bit or 64-bit).
