I have a Dell Latitude running Windows XP (it's only 2 years old) and tried to download SyncToy 2.1. I got this error screen (whoops, no place to add an image). It reads:
Component MS Sync Framework 2.0 Core Components has failed to install with the following error message:
"A fatal error occurred during the installation of Microsoft Sync Framework 2.0 Core Components."
The following components were not installed:
-MS Sync Framework 2.0 Provider Services
The Following components failed to install:
-MS Sync Framework 2.0 Core Components
See the setup log file located at . . . ."
I use synctoy on my Windows7 machine without a problem. I tried searching for the uninstalled piece and installing them and got error messages as well.
