I want to use Microsoft Power Point viewer using Cameyo. The latest version is available on microsoft website. I tried to capture installation but failed.
Your help will be greatly appreciated. And If it works, I also buy a premium version of Cameyo.
You said that you tried to capture installation but failed. What happened exactly?
Did you use a clean virtual machine? What OS did you use to build the package and what is the target OS? Was the PowerPoint Viewer package built? Did you receive an error?
Case 1: I opened the Cameyo. Clicked capture an installation. It scanned current system. Then I Installed Power point viewer, then Clicked Finish Installation, After than Cameyo Just Struck on post installation scanning. After a very long time, I just kill the threat.
Case 2: I opend Cameyo. Clicked capture an Installation> It scanned current system. Then I installed Two Software. 1- My own project, 2- Microsoft Power point viewer. After I clicked Finish Installation. Then Cameyo only detected my own project and it didn't detected MS Power point viewer.
It sounds as if you are not using a clean virtual machine. For best practice, packaging should be done on a system that has only the OS installed, i.e. no software that has ever been installed.
Regarding Case 2, had you uninstalled PowerPoint Viewer before performing the pre-installation snapshot?
I tried on my friends pc with windows seven. That was not a virtual machine. That windows currently running is used by this. Anyways, I will install the windows using vmware and will try again. Then I will tell you.
I installed Fresh Windows 7 Professional 64 Bit in Vmware Workstation. Then I opened Cameyo and Took Initial Snapshot of system. Then I installed Microsoft Power Point viewer. It installed successfully in windows 7 pro. Then I Clicked Install Done and Cameyo Placed the app in My documents.
But When I am running the app in my documents it is giving the following error. I am attaching the snapshot of the error details
After when I clicked ok. A second error appeared. I also attached the snapshot of that error windows
Open your package with Package Editor and change Startup to %Program Files (x86)%\Microsoft Office\Office14\PPTVIEW.EXE. Save and try running the package again. You can find information on editing a package here.
I have done this. When I opened it. I seen some processing but no popup display.. Then I added a ppsx file in the package and opened it then this error occured.
I fixed the above problem by first uninstalling microsoft vc++ 2008 redistributable package and then capturing the installation by installing both vc++ 2008 redist and MS PPT Viewer.
Now I found that Cameyo.exe file is not running in windows 10 as I moved the file from windows 7 to windows 10.
Please upload your package to a file-sharing site. We generally suggest WeTransfer because it is easy for both parties. Email to yourself and post the URL.
Actually I have latest Windows 10 Anniversary update. My system is fully updated and I don't think so whether something is missing. I will test in a newly installed windows 10 clean virtual machine and I will let you know then.
