Windows Movie Maker 2 Does Not Install

I have Windows XP Professional. After downloading
mm20enu.exe, the file will not run. The following error
message is generated: mm20enu.exe is not a valid Win32
application.

I also downloaded file for direct installation, and it
failed the same way.

Why isn't this a good file? What can I do to complete a
proper install?

Maybe the Problem Solving... MM2 Will Not Install page of www.papajohn.org
will help.

Thanks for the assist. I did check your site (great
resource!). I don't have MM1 installed, so don't think
the solution you suggest is a way out. Any other ideas
would be VERY MUCH appreciated.

Doug,

You're using XP Professional, so you have MM1 or MM2. It's included in the
operating system.

Guess I figured you were upgrading from MM1 to MM2.

Hi there,

If you have an AntiVirus program scanning all inbound files you may get
this problem. Symantec AntiVirus is known to do it and I am not certain,
but I think McAfee will also do....its down to the settings in the AV
program...so if you have one running, disable it for the duration of the
download...

PapaJohn,

You are right - I did have MM1 on my computer! So I
tried to follow your suggestions from MKBA-825229. But
the file C:\Windows\...\{60BFF50D-FB2C-...} does not
exist anywhere on my computer.

Any ideas on what I might to to upgrade?

Doug

Maybe you have a corrupt download file. Start at the beginning and download
the MM2 installation file.
