Well, I'm signed in with my ms account and it has an active developer license. I have finished all the steps mentioned on the read me file but still no luck I've attached the error message
That's a really cool story about your company, I read it twice. Back to browsers, everyone but you have downloaded the file succesfully, and probably most of us are running up to date antivirus solutions, so it's safe to say we didn't compromise our security. Besides, you already trust MediaFire enough to whitelist it. So whatever type of security you are implementing is obviously misconfigured if it's not letting you download a simple file. And congrats on a 6 years clean system (if you mean without reinstalling Windows that means you are running WinXP/Vista?). I've used Windows since Win98 and haven't been infected once yet, only by using a decent AV and not being stupid.
I running Server 2003 Enterprise (LAN) and Web (Internet/Website/Webapps) for the Business since 2004 and the Enterprise server wasn't switch of more than 5 years as off now. Using an selfmade UPS with 8 200Ah Truck Batteries because of nearly daily Power cuts up to 6 hour, that UPS gives me 10h for the server.Modem, Router, Firewall and switch run on an commercial 5kVA UPS which could run up to 16 hour. We planning to change to Server 2012 within the next 3 month, after we get the 100/20Mbps Internet connection as promised by our ISP. So, a lot changes will come to the year end and if all is being installed in proper timing, we change a lot between Christmas and New Year which is the best time for to do that. Until 6 years ago we were using some leased Line parallel with some ISDN lines for our system and that was not so secure at all because the ISP at those time didn't had any security installed and everything were just come in. With the change to ADSL Leased Line, we were able to get our system clean down to zero. Thailand at those time were still a bit in the Computer Stoneage and Security was something people even don't know how to spell! That's changed a lot and today we can sit down and relax. But that by any means didn't stop us from to avoid ANY possible attack or infection. So in this case, while an unknown source has bundled something with a download which may or may not could be a problem. I checked that download with 3 different computers running W8, W7 and server 2003 and got those download blocked at every of that computers tells to better keep the hands off and that's what I'm doing.
On my Win 8 it hanged on installing the dependencies. I only renamed the Dependencie-Folder and it proper installed it. I think the dependencies are already installed on a normal win 8 install and win blocks it if such a "foreign" sideloaded app want's to reinstall the dependencies. So no cripling of such standard dependencies from viruses.
Had the same problem to solve it: 1-Take ownership of folder: C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\ 2- inside windowsApps rename "Microsoft.VCLibs.110_11.0.50522.1_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe" to "XMicrosoft.VCLibs.110_11.0.50522.1_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe" and do the same with the x86 folder 3- install Skype With PowerShell 4- rename "Microsoft.VCLibs.110_11.0.50522.1_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe" to "YMicrosoft.VCLibs.110_11.0.50522.1_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe" and do the same with the x86 folder 5- rename "XMicrosoft.VCLibs.110_11.0.50522.1_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe" to "Microsoft.VCLibs.110_11.0.50522.1_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe" and do the same with the x86 folder
This Skype is not even that cool, anyways. You just didn't have to bash on the original poster. Download didn't work? Let him know. You didn't like his suggestions? Move on. No need to use BIG ASS bold text with angry faces.
If a Forum Member post links to an MediaFire account, that means he's the owner of that account. If those linked downloads popping up a warning or couldn't downloaded any way, there's something wrong. Other members of that forum should be informed and to do that the best is use Bold Letters because that will triggers caution. If the owner of that file advice to turn off Popups, that's a bad advice which compromise the security of systems. Even kid's today knows that Popups leading in many cases to spamming and also to get infected. Ok, I could say to myself: "Why I should inform others about problems? It's not my system and they should take care on their own!" Do you think that would be Ok?
my windows store doesn't work anymore it keeps telling me to restart pc or refresh pc. tried restarting but still didn't work. I mean the store works it just doesn't let me download stuff. when I click an app it just shows it for like a second then boom shows the "something happened and the windows store is no longer working. bla bla".. any idea how to fix this?
Wait, do i have to install skype for this to work? Maybe thats why it crashes? Edit: Installed Skype but Metro app still crashes.
