Re[2]: Re: Still failing to get to the please wait box

Yes, in fact I am reading (and answering to questions in) this group.

The problem you have, can have 1000 different reasons - I just can't 
say. It would probably needing to write a log and do some debugging to 
actually find out what the problem is.
In most cases it is a 3rd party software interfering with EAC in one or 
the other way.

To completely remove EAC (where you probably should start):
Delete the EAC directory completely (most probably in C:\program files 
(x86)\Exact Audio Copy).
Delete all EAC options in the registry using regedit.exe (Registry 
Editor) in path HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\AWSoftware\EACU
Delete all files in %appdata%\EAC (these are your profiles and your CD 
database, perhaps you want to backup them in order to write them back 
when thing have been sorted out).

On a new install, just install EAC itself (not a single other install 
option).
If this works, install the install options one by one (no need to 
deinstall on each try) in order to find out whether an optional install 
causes the problems.

But I doubt that it will work as it is most probably a third party 
software installed in your user account (but not in a different user 
account) which somehow interferes...

Best regards,
Andre
