Trying to install examples tells me SB is not installed (yet it is).
What is the criterion?

Sim,

I think you are using a five years old SetupBuilder Version 6 (from November
2008). V6 reached End-of-Live status quite some time ago.

This outdated SetupBuilder version is not supported any longer and so you
can't install and/or use the new Examples Package.

Hello Friedrich,

I still have the SB6 examples but it refuses to install.

Hi Sim,

Then you do not have a "valid" SetupBuilder 6 install and the required
registry items are missing (e.g. a "Registry Cleaner" removed the Product
GUID from the Windows registry). As a result, SB is no longer registered
with Windows.

Reinstall SB6 and this should "fix" it.

Many thanks indeed, Friedrich. Done, now "fixed".

And that was for a "no longer supported" version!
Your assistance is more than just professional!
Most appreciated, to say the very least!
