Hi Malkom,
I hope your day is well. I was able to locate the androidpathpref file on my C: drive but when I go to select this file in HAC the folder path does not exist. After typing into the path fields with the path specifics, its still not located by HAC. I uninstalled HAC then rebooted my pc and reinstalled HAC. Even with these steps, HAC does not tie the sdk nor locate the C:\Users\Condrea\AppData\Roaming\Hac_data\data. Is there a work around on this issue? I really think HAC is user friendly and would like to upgrade but this mere step of not being able to launch the emulator is making me hesistant in buying the upgrade version. Are you able to do a remote assistance like gotomeeting.com to help me get this right? if so, what day and time will work?
Thanks,
Keisha
Hi Keisha
I hope your day is well to and these HAC problems aren't too frustrating.
Thank you for all the screen shots - they show that HAC isn't installing correctly and much of its required files are missing.
I think therefore we should be looking at the HAC installer and perhaps these three options below might work with a clean install (not sure if you have already tried them):-
1) Uninstall HAC and then click on the HAC Installer and under
Properties - Advanced - Compatability - Privilege Level - check the box
Run this program as administrator - as in the picture below.
Then try to install HAC.
2) If HAC still doesn't work then uninstall and click on the HAC Installer and under
Properties - Advanced - Compatability - Compatability Mode - select either
Windows XP(Service Pack2) or
Windows XP(Service Pack 3) - as in the picture below.
Then try to install HAC.
3) If HAC still doesn't work then uninstall. This step tries to set DEP for the HAC Installer as apparently many other apps have DEP caused install problems.
Click on
My Computer and select Properties - Advanced - Performance - Data Execution Prevention
Next - add an exception for HAC Easy Installer - as in the picture below.
Then try to install HAC.
I hope one of these migfht help - but if not then I'll look further.
By the way, best not to upgrade as it wouldn't help, HAC just wouldn't recognise your registration details serial number etc.
