WTF? It should be simple enough. I've tried twice, and both times I'm met with an error window telling me the program was "unable to install at this time. Please try again"
What the hell does that mean? Why wouldn't it install to begin with??

I had the same message come up as well at the end of install process,but when I launched WMP 9 after the message it continued the install process and it installed ok.

If yours is not installing at all,try closing down anti-virus etc,and if you`re using XP ,I believe System restore should be on since it creates a restore point before installation.

Mem, you're right. I opened the program and it finished installing. Strange, but very MS-like. Thank you.
