Re: Miktex on Mac under Parallels

Thanks, I m used to working with Winedt and that is why I prefer
MikTeX+Winedt path. I have McTeX+Texshop installed, but Winedt is my editor
of choice.

I got SP 2 and 3 and now can start the installation, but in the middle of
it I get an error messag, the log file says:

An error occurred:
  source file: Libraries\MiKTeX\PackageManager\PackageInstaller.cpp
  source line: 3281
  message: The operation could not be completed because the following file
failed verification:

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\MiKTeX 2.9
Setup\toptesi.tar.lzma
  info:

Any idea how can I bypass this?
