AJNinGA 1 Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 (edited) The latest update is not creating the MBC Tile (or strip) in WMC 7. Screen shot shows WMC7 with no MB3 strip. Also attached is install log. mbc-install.log MBClassic-Msi.log Edited January 27, 2015 by AJNinGA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14910 Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Looks like a permissions problem. Try running the installer from the web site and be sure to respond to any UAC prompts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJNinGA 1 Posted January 28, 2015 Author Share Posted January 28, 2015 I'm not sure what you mean about running from the website. I download the MBC installer and opened that file. I even right-clicked and selected Run As Admin. No luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14910 Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Try a different user profile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJNinGA 1 Posted January 30, 2015 Author Share Posted January 30, 2015 Ok. Tried that today, still no luck. Should I uninstall MBC? Also, I use the MCE Reset Toolbox which allows me to create new tiles. Can you provide path and arguments required to create my own tile to MBC?

ebr 14910 Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Also, I use the MCE Reset Toolbox which allows me to create new tiles. That is probably why it is having trouble. You can try uninstalling MBC but that basically occurs before any update anyway so I'm not sure it will help. You may need to reset your WMC environment back to an initial state before you messed with it with the menu hacking tool. Then see if MBC will install.

AJNinGA 1 Posted January 30, 2015 Author Share Posted January 30, 2015 (edited) I'll try that next, but I'm certain that I have installed previous MBC updates and used MCE RTB afterwards. Because I would rearrange the tiles and strips to my pleasure and then the MBC installer would re-create your strip and move the tile back there. And I would go back and re-arrange the tiles and strips, etc... Until now Edited January 30, 2015 by AJNinGA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJNinGA 1 Posted February 1, 2015 Author Share Posted February 1, 2015 (edited) Hey. With MCE RTB, I selected Restore Defaults and did a MBC Install...no luck. I tried again after I un-installed MCE RTB. Nothing worked. However another program's tiles and strip remained visible and intact after all these attempts. I don't see a MBC un-install option anywhere. Any other ideas? Edited February 1, 2015 by AJNinGA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJNinGA 1 Posted February 1, 2015 Author Share Posted February 1, 2015 (edited) Well, looking around on my HTPC, I dont see any entries for MBC at all. How do I know MBC is on my computer right now? Edited February 1, 2015 by AJNinGA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14910 Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 I think that the whole issue is that it isn't on your PC right now. The installation failed with a permissions error. Exception occurred: The specified application can not be registered or launched, access denied ... Product: Media Browser Classic -- Installation failed.

AJNinGA 1 Posted February 1, 2015 Author Share Posted February 1, 2015 When I execute the current setup file from your website, I get no UAC requests. I get the MB banner, the status bar fills in green along the bottom and that's it. I have downloaded the executable file a handful of times. It's SB Sunday so I am not touching my computer the rest of the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJNinGA 1 Posted February 2, 2015 Author Share Posted February 2, 2015 (edited) Any chance of getting an executable of the previous MBC installer? I thought I had an older version, but when I ran it, the banner for 243 appeared on screen. Edited February 2, 2015 by AJNinGA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJNinGA 1 Posted February 4, 2015 Author Share Posted February 4, 2015 Just tried the latest beta. Still failing and not installing MBC. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14910 Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 Did you ever un-install WMC and re-install it (via add Windows Features)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJNinGA 1 Posted February 4, 2015 Author Share Posted February 4, 2015 Did you ever un-install WMC and re-install it (via add Windows Features)?Good idea. I'd forgotten about that trick. Will report back tomorrow. Thansk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJNinGA 1 Posted February 6, 2015 Author Share Posted February 6, 2015 Well, what I have done is create a new media center tile pointing to MB Theater. Seems to be working right now, but I'll reserve judgement until the wife uses MBT for a while. I am still curious why MBC installer is now failing on my machine. I have installed other Media Center plugins and have manipulated the start menu with MCE RTB with no issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJNinGA 1 Posted February 14, 2015 Author Share Posted February 14, 2015 Well, unfortunately MBT is crashing too often (as reported here: http://mediabrowser.tv/community/index.php?/topic/17962-mediabrowseruiexe-crashing/?p=174959). I know that you all are working to update MBT, so.... Is there anything else I can do to help out troubleshooting my MBC issue (not being able to install)? Otherwise, I need to switch to another product for my TV series database/viewing needs until MBC/MBT is up to speed. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deihmos 147 Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 A refresh of what? A complete reinstall. I wouldn't advise using software that messes with the system files to change the tiles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJNinGA 1 Posted February 15, 2015 Author Share Posted February 15, 2015 Of windows7? I think not. Not yet at least. The only program not working correctly is the MBC. Considering that it cannot even install on my system right now since this latest update, I am questioning your installer. Granted I might be the only one. As I have mentioned, I have installed and removed other MC7 plugins on his system since this issue surfaced, and none have had any troubles.
