Why are we renaming the last folder to command? You left out some steps, and spent too much time explaining what a quotation mark is. Thanks for the effort, but the info given is confusing to idiots like me.

[@alienvszombie]

yes i also not understand

[@kevinjoyce7770]

Before you change the folder name to 'command' you input a formula. What you've done there is not clear. The formula disappears and there is an empty box into which you type command. Feels like some step is missing. Also not everyone knows that a reboot is required after changing the registry. Anyway this did not work for me.

[@monicaromo779]

I got it!. This is what I did and worked. So, write this: msiexec /i "%1" and then hit enter (just as he says) and then select it again and rename it to command and keep doing the rest. I believe that's the only step he's missing because it worked for me!

[@jonconley4424]

I just scrolled through 300 comments to see why we are supposed to rename to command on that file. And no explanation at all.

Overall, it just makes an installation place for the packages. There is no need to go deep into it

[@urgenlama3659]

Ya man same here twisted plot man

[@pauldennison2543]

Why not just make key named command then put in the msiexec /I "%1" as default?

Bud it would be great is you would answer the question about what is going on from the time you key in the formula and then just jump to renaming it "command"... doesn't renaming it command cause it to wipe out the formula...? 🤷‍♂️

Hello, Have a problem with Photoshop CS6. I installed in about 6 months ago and it worked as expected. However now, every time I launch photoshop CS6, it wants to install. When I say alright to install, it installs and then launches to a normal screen. Because of this all my previously created photoshop files appear as photoshop CS4 files since I had it installed at one point, but if I try to launch the file directly, it is looking for CS4 which now has been shut down by Adobe. Just found out Adobe shut the CS4 servers down so all CS4 packages no longer work. How to I fix my CS6 problem? And lastly is there a way to get CS4 to work again other than re-setting my clock every time I want to use CS4? A prompt reply would be appreciated. Thanks!

Every time after install i tried to open the software it partially opens but it reaches a point where it just sits there with the little buffering circle but it never fully installs. I followed oculus instructions to start in safe mode and uninstall all oculus files and then get out of safe mode and reinstall software after i have disable all virus protection. I even went as far as to uninstall mcafee and disabled wind defender and still no help. My headset is due today and i have to return it because i cant get this software installed. Any suggestions
