Error installing Scratch
I have installed Scratch on 6 of our school lab computers, but now I receive this error:
"Error opening file for writing: C:\Program Files\Scratch\.\CameraPlugin.dll
Click Abort to stop the installation, Retry to try again, or Ignore to skip this file."
Any help?
Thanks much.

Re: Error installing Scratch
Go to the Scratch File and see if the Camera File is there...
If not, I guess, just re-download it.
By the way, this should go in Troubleshooting. (:

Re: Error installing Scratch
If everything fails, I suggest you use the files-only version.
Out of curiosity, what school are you from?

Check disk space and file permissions?

Re: Error installing Scratch
Ah - just responded to this on help. I suspect the installer may not have admin privileges on the machine, which causes all kinds of weird errors when installing. But we'll see...
