I have attempted several times to install this. I put this on this forum
since if I go to MS site and use search it cannot find Silverlight but I
have noticed several people on this forum mention using Silverlight. If I
go to http://silverlight.net/ and click the download link that does not
work.
I can only say it is a pathetic introduction. Why it will not install (when
you can find it) on Vista seems to be a common problem.
Any ideas?

Why it will not install (when you can find it) on Vista
Did you forget to run the installation as administrator.. .?

On Vista, download the file instead of install and run the install as
administrator. Remember that Vista "protects" you from the bad guys. It also
"protects" you from
a) yourself
b) good guys
c) programs you desire to run
Don't get me wrong. There is a lot I love about Vista, but it is awfully
intrusive at times.

I would if I could. All the link on MS sites seem to know nothing about
Silverlight. The site I mentioned goes to the generic download page and a
search in MS says nothing found for Silverlight. Maybe its been killed (ha
ha).
If I could find a link to the install file I would try as admin but no luck
on that.
thanks

Seems to be a permission problem in registry. What a great technology NOT).

At this point neither. After much googling I found some articles pointing
out registry key permissions. I found those keys, changed the permissions
and running the Process Monitor I can see that one of the keys now get
permission correct. Others don't and the thing I love about this is I can
see from PM that the keys that are failing are using my userid and looking
in regedit I am the owner and have full access.
I think Bill had best come back as head scientist.
As for Vista, it makes MS Bob look like a great idea. I was going to look
at doing some poking around with Silverlight but if I can't view what I
create I guess there is no point. The real puzzler is going to the MS site
and searching for Silverlight and getting no links. That could say it all.

What on earth are you talking about???
1) http://www.microsoft.com
2) Enter Silverlight in the box
3) Hit Enter
That gives the following:
http://search.microsoft.com/results....&q=Silverlight
How many more links do you actually need...?

Try it. It goes to:
We're sorry, but we were unable to service your request. You may wish to
choose from the links below for information about Microsoft products and
services.
And anyway since I cannot get it to install and work it really does not
matter. I found on my workstation the install exe and tried with and
without UAC, as admin, not as admin. Changing ownership on reg keys etc.
No luck.
