Cannot Install Programs - Object Desktop Manager Beta 4.04

Cannot Install Programs

from Stardock Forums

Hi,

 

I was having trouble updating all programs so I uninstalled Object Desktop then went through the registry to delete remaining items. I reinstalled Object Desktop Beta 4.04 and I'm still getting the same error. I cannot install any programs. I had Start11 v2 Beta, Fences Beta, and ObjectDock 3 installed, now none of them are installed. How can I reinstall the software programs?

 

Failed to load plugin:

C:\Users\*****\AppData\Local\Temp\_ir_sf_temp_0\Encoding.

Imd (#2)

 

Error

I feel silly asking, but apart from Object Desktop Manager, which Object Desktop programs do you have already installed? Have you tried uninstalling OD Manager and reinstalling?

Also please run winver and post your Windows version.

Right now I only have the main Object Desktop software installed. I get this error when I try and install any other Stardock software.

I just uninstalled and reinstall the Object Desktop software today.

Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. If you go to your account product page, download from there and install the software does it work?

No, I did that.

I uninstalled the one that was installed and also deleted all the Stardock registry keys so it would be a clean installation.

I downloaded and installed the Object Desktop Insider and installed it.

Now I cannot install any of the programs included.

 

I get this message:

What I am trying to say, if you install individual software, such as Fences, Start11 etc by directly download from your account page? and use those downloaded installer, does the installation work?

Thank you,

Hi,

No installing them individually did not work either but I did get them installed this morning.

I activated the built in Administrator account and was able to install everything I had and a few extra programs from the Object Desktop.

Thanks for your help

Great, happy to hear it is working now. Any idea what changed "this morning"? Since you mentioned it was not working before.

Thank you,

Hi,

I still cannot update from my account but I log into the built in admin account and it installed. I have no Idea why. I just tried to update the Start11 v2 Insider update and it would not update so I will login to the admin account and update it.

Sometimes your account could get corrupted, hence causing issue. You could use the "sfc/ scannow" and "DISM" command to scan your system and see if it can be repair.

Thank you,
