I have problems installing picasa. On some installs, i was able to install picasa without problems. But on some installs, i can't install later versions of picasa, only older versions. If i do update, picasa will stop working.
The error message given is "current user is not allowed to install or update applications"

i am always runing with uac off. Tried all versions of lite, i keep reinstalling every time there is newer version.

I tried now v2.7 and I do remove a lot and it works.

Do you disable some more services which are not yet available in vLite?

Good question. I had problems installing CS3 when i disabled some services.
I have problems with picasa even when i do not disable any services. In fact, i tried it as a first thing on new install.

Hi again, I am still having problems when installing picasa.
I vlited with 1.1.1, and tried picasa, right after I fnished installing. I did not disable any services, just did Windows Update. I think it must be something i removed.

Can i send you list of removals?

Windows Picture and Fax Viewer (Shimgvw) <-- don't remove this as it has been known for a long time (in nLite at least) that the related service is needed for alot of graphics related programs and apps. So it just goes to follow that removing this will kill picasa and adobe.

I left Windows Picture and Fax Viewer (Shimgvw) alone, but picasa still will not install. I have done several reinstalls.
I have no problems with any other software, even photoshop works fine.

OK I got picasa to work!!

I don't know exactly what was the problem, but I left folowing components:

Recomended - scanners and cameras

Windows Image Acquisition
Windows Photo Gallery
Distributed Link Tracking Client
Distributed Transaction Coordinator (DTC)
Error Reporting
Interactive Services Detection
IP Helper
IPsec Policy Agent
Microsoft DFS Replication
Offline Files
Protected Storage
Quality Windows Audio Video Experience
Volume Shadow Copy
WebDAV (WebClient)
IMAPIv2 Burning Support
Jet Database Engine
MDAC


Can anyone help me figure out which components are needed for Picasa? And whitch are not needed?
And maybe add an picasa item in software support in Vlite?

Working ini attached

Thanks!

edit: just scanners and cameras seem to be enough.
