I just loaded XP Pro and lost Neo edit. Tried to reload but it said I must uninstall first. Tried that but said I need a file called NEOedit.msi. Can't be found anywhere. How do I reload NEO edit?>

Did you solve your problem yet? An msi file is used to create "packages" of applications, lime NeoEdit. These applications are then automatically installed from a network server to individual computers on the network; I use them at work all the time.

When you updated to XP (from what OS?) your registry is updated, as well as your folder structures. It looks like it still thinks it is installed, but it can't find the MSI file (MicroSoft Installer) to run the de-install code. The only way is to put this MSI file back in the same path it is looking for. Even then it might not run because the supporting files need to be there.
Did you delete the folder that the install was in? Maybe the XP install moved it. Also, you could be logged in as a different user, and different users have different rights and folders. Maybe you just need to log in as your old user. Who knows.
Hope this helps.
