The message told me, “Unable to install Silverlight.”
I clicked for “More information”:
According to the error code, it “installed successfully”. Hmmmm!

About Me
- Colin
- I work for a small independent software vendor in Buckinghamshire, and have done for nine years. We don't have "official" job titles, but the most common one I would use is "Software Developer". I can be found coding in VB6, VB.NET, and PHP. Often, this will be to a SQL Server, Oracle, or MySQL database. Being a self-confessed geek, I find myself distracted from these duties far too often for my boss' liking, and may often be up to my elbows in Windows Server, random client or colleague problems, or just generally sticking my nose in elsewhere. Of course, it's not my fault that other people ask me questions...

What is Silverlight? What does it do? Why would I want it?
ReplyDeleteSlightly techy answer: It's like Adobe Flash but from Microsoft.
ReplyDeleteLess techy answer with marketing bullshit: It's an exciting Microsoft technology which enables rich web content and media.
In other words: Microsoft's new thing for developers to use to make websites look pretty and stream video.
When it's needed, I imagine you shouldnt' really have to "do" anything to get it, it'll probably just turn up, or "suggest" you into installing it.
It has already 'suggested' I might like it. I ignored the suggestion. I'm sure I've got Flash kicking about here somewhere...I don't need anymore shit on this thing, it's slow enough as it is...
