This should be fixed in the next build (3069+). Can you confirm once it's released (should be soon)?

Thanks!

I don't know if it's relevant, but I noticed that during the regular installation literally nothing appeared in DebugView about the error. The error gives three options (retry, ignore, undo) and even if I click "retry" several times, DebugView is still blank. It's only after I click "ignore" (twice, because the error shows up twice) that things start to get printed to the log.

In contrast, the portable installation gave me that set of [12820] items before the error appeared.

I ran an SFC scan; no issues were found.

Regarding the other theories:
* There is only one user account on this computer, mine, and I'm running the installation as administrator
* I have no antivirus software except the default that Microsoft provides with Windows.

Hi,
I checked the log and it appears not MM issue MM installation ended normally. Interesting issue as it seams that error is withing regsvr32 not MM installation eg. The rare error you are seeing is either caused by insufficient Windows User Account permissions or by overzealous anti-virus software. In other words, it is not caused by the MM installer but by something on your PC.

Can you try installing MM as Portable (Tick portable installation) and see if you see the error.

I would also suggest you run an SFC scan and check for corrupted files. System File Checker is a utility in Windows that allows users to scan for corruptions in Windows system files and restore corrupted files. Please refer to the link below and check if it helps: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/929833

THX, I corrected it applies to both Windows arm versions. What device model you actually have and have Win Arm OS installed?

I created the log but can't seem to log in to MantisBT; I can't remember my account's username and password, and can't figure out how to create a new account there.

BTW the ticket is incorrect - I'm on Windows 10, not 11.

Perhaps then during install on arm64 system, if error while registering the dll file do not show a popup and just continue with installation? or not try to register it on those systems. Then installation would go flawless.

Hi,
Desk Player do not have any value in Win 11 as it it is Task Bar player which do not exist in Win 11.

Well lets wait what the dev's has to say about it with this new information. Perhaps they can adjust/modify the dll to support arm64 aswell.

Right click mediamonkey exe installer file, properties, compability, and take a look at the "change emulation settings".

I don't have a ARM64 machine, so you might have to make a printscreen for me, for those emulation settings.
Any change to those settings results in the installation failing much earlier. Only the default works.

Aha. Manually attempting to register the DLL gives this:
The Module "C:\PRogram Files (x86)\MediaMonkey 5\DeskPlayer.dll" may not be compatible with the version of Windows that you're running. Check if the module is compatible with an x86 (32-bit) or x64 (64-bit) version of regsvr32.exe.
I'm starting to suspect that this is related to my ARM64 processor.

Isn't that error related just to registering the dll? And maybe that the dll itself is already replaced before that error popups?
Whats are the dates on the file? (created and modified)
Does manual registrating the dll works?
Open cmd/terminal as admin, copy command below, and hit enter.
regsvr32 "C:\Program Files (x86)\MediaMonkey 5\DeskPlayer.dll"
Could also try, to first unregister the dll file before registring it again with:
regsvr32 /u "C:\Program Files (x86)\MediaMonkey 5\DeskPlayer.dll"
If still get an error.
WinKey(flag)+R, then type: eventvwr
Then press enter, then look at Windows Logs --> at Application, and and System, and tell what kind of errors you have at the time of installing MM.
What versions of 2015/2017 VC redistributable etc are installed on your machine? Try installing the new version for that.
Got Atmel Studio installed?
If using a other virusscaner then Windows Defender, try turning if temporary off before installing, and see if that helps, perhaps the virusscanner is "looking" at the file at the moment of installing.

For MM devs: whats the DeskPlayer.temp.0 used for?
