ReneNL Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 This is the first update that failed... Checked my windows app log and found: "..Product: Affinity Publisher Public Beta -- Error 1335. The cabinet file 'Main.cab' required for this installation is corrupt and cannot be used. This could indicate a network error, an error reading from the CD-ROM, or a problem with this package." Downloaded the beta again (same size) and install was succesfull. ...During the failed update i got a Windows "smart screen for Microsoft warning" Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjparsons12 Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 Yep! Exactly the same thing happened to me. I'm testing it on two computers and build 162 failed to install on both and also removed previous version. Poo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Russell Forgham Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 I have tried to install it but keep getting "installation failed." My previous version of AP Beta has vanished from my PC. What can I do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackthephoto Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 Every time I try to download this I get a 'file invalid signature' (Windows version). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackthephoto Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 I checked my other PC where I managed to download and update .162 without issues yesterday but I noticed that the file name was 'affinity-publisher-public-beta.exe. and not the same as the one in the download link. Is this significant? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C922614 Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 I am also unable to install v1.7.0.162 - although it has removed the previous beta version. Installation showed progress bar and then a "set up failed" error. I downloaded a 2nd time after logging in to my account and had the same problem. I have subsequently restarted the PC and same issue again. Previous versions of the beta have been fine. Reinstalled V1.7.0.145 I am running Windows 10 Pro 1809 17763.107 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PWC Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 Yet another failed installation here. Prior installation deleted, now I have nothing ( I stupidly deleted previously downloaded versions!) Can we please have an updated installer ASAP, there is obviously something wrong with this one judging by the number of failed installations.

steve4cello Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 I'm also having installation problems - it goes through the installation process & then says 'Setup failed' having removed the previous version. Rebooted computer twice & redownloaded the installation file again, but no difference. Total no of failed installations so far = 5. Giving up now. Using Windows 10 Pro.

Panchdara Posted November 11, 2018 Share Posted November 11, 2018 For what it's worth - AP installed just fine on both my studio laptop and my office machine. I had/having absolutely no issues. That being said, I am a stalwart at keeping these machines clean, clean, clean.

desanna100 Posted November 11, 2018 Share Posted November 11, 2018 Also failed on setup. Windows Defender is preventing installation. Allow anyway? Yes, overrode this, still fails on Setup.

westbanker Posted November 11, 2018 Share Posted November 11, 2018 The last two version attempts to download the Windows 10 upgrade "failed on Setup". Using Windows 10 Home version 1803 Build 17134.345. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve4cello Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 Having failed to install on desktop with W10 Pro, I've now also failed to install on my Surface Pro 4 machine (basically a small laptop). Using Edge as browser, after downloading the Downloads tab says "The signature of this file is corrupt or invalid" Trying to run it causes Windows Defender Smartscreen to throw up a blue window saying it's prevented the file from running, but gives an option to override & run it anyway. Selecting that option allows the file to run but at the end of what looks like a normal intallation process, it just gives the error message 'Setup failed' (as in screenshot in previous post). It has of course uninstalled the previous version of Publisher so it's completely vanished from both my computer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
