Notes:
• Near the end of the installation, the help file is installed on your system and registered. This process can take some time, and you might think that your system has stopped, but do not interrupt the installation process.
• If you experience issues installing under Microsoft Windows Vista, you may need to install as the administrator. If you are still unable to install, try disabling your User Account Control (UAC) and then reactivate after installing.
• Spread for WinForms: Microsoft has informed us that MSN Messenger can lock the GAC, which stops the installation from removing older assemblies from the GAC. For more information, refer to Removing Assemblies from the GAC.
