i accidentally deleted the Mobiflight folder (that I had not realised resided in Downloads). I tried to install a new copy and the Mobiflight Installer black window with the MF logo and the word label1 appear but the grey bar stays grey, nothing loads. The only way to remove the Installer window is then via Task Manager.

I searched the whole computer and removed every mention of Mobiflight I can find and still it will not load.

I would be very frateful for any assistance.

Eventually found the answer was in a previous reply further down this thread:

"Please Download our official Installer File here on the Homepage Main Menue.
Then COPY it from your Download Folder into a self created Folder.
Avoid Desktop/ Windows Folders, Programmfilesx86 and so on.
I recommend for Testing simply make a folder on the "root" like C:/Mobi If you have a seccond HDD then prefer it... e.g. D:/Mobi
Finally RUN the installer.exe WITHIN this folder.
( You can also RUN the unstaller with Admin Rights.... Not official recommend. But i would do it so)"

I did this, used Admin Rights and it loaded fine.
