Don't know if this is expected behaviour or not. I had to drag it there too. And as you can see on my Signature, I also use Windows 10. Best regards!

They even pointed you on how to get the best of assistance by pointing you to the right forum. 44 minutes ago, Wolfie2 said: I've tried to install on three win 10 64 bit PCs, all failed This, of course, must be very frustrating, I am with you there. Here I installed on a Win 10 64 bit PC without a problem. It seems the current beta is having some problems. I am sure the team at Serif will sort out those problems and it will eventually work on your computer as well. Best regards, d.

trajanmcgill Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 Thanks for the updates. Still unable to install directly over the previous version on a single try without rebooting, though. Windows 10 (1803), updating Publisher from beta .162. Logs are attached for three installation attempts. You'll note that the failures seem to be permission-related...but the failure and success both happen while logged in as the same user, with the same UAC popup approval given. So my best guess is that there's some issue with a lock on the folder involved (or a file in it) that's still active at the point that the uninstaller or installer is trying to delete or modify the item in question. Attempt 1: After running Publisher to check whether I had the latest version, exited, downloaded the newest, and ran the installer. Installation failed. Attempt 2: Tried again immediately. Installation failed. Attempt 3: Rebooted, logged back in as the same user. Ran the same installer. Installed successfully, and launches successfully.

Dave Harris Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 On 11/13/2018 at 3:51 PM, dominik said: Can anyone explain what 'Thin Space handling' is? Unicode defines various fixed width spaces, including one called a Thin Space. Previously long lines could be broken at a thin space; now they can't; it is treated as a non-breaking space instead. This is preferred behaviour when the thin space is used as a separator in numbers. Also, previously Publisher always used its own widths for fixed spaces, according to their Unicode definitions. Now if the font defines the space, Publisher uses the font's width instead.
