Honored Contributorinstall.ptf file is created in folder where current desktop directory is located
which is normally Documents and Settings\<current user> . The tools search for install.ptf always in Documents and Settings\<current user> directory Once I used a multi desktop software, which set the current desktop directory in some other folder. install.ptf was created in that folder, but the tool searched in Documents and Settings\<current user> Now I reset the current desktop to the orginal directory and the error vanished.
