I'm working on it.
PDF 1.5 introduced compressed XREF streams, and it turned out being a lot of work to decode...

Sorry for delay. Have been

Sorry for delay. Have been away.

  • 32 bit
  • C:\Windows\System32\PdfPropertyExtension*.dll is installed  
  • Also discoverred that Readme file is also installed and working
  • My reason for wanting to install property extension was to display .pdf metadata in W7 explorer
  • After more testing it turns out that some .pdf versions allow metadata to be displayed but the later versions do not, so I guess that's it.
  • Thanks for your assistance.

Need more info

That's the last file to install, so extension libraries shuuld already exist. I need further info:

  • is it a 64 or 32 bit Windows 7?
  • could you please check if file C:\Windows\System32\PdfPropertyExtension*.dll and/or C:\Windows\SysWOW64\PdfPropertyExtension*.dll were installed?
  • do you have any antivirus/antimalware/protection software installed. Maybe this is preventing files to install correctly. Please try to deactivate them.

Thanks for your reply.

Thanks for your reply.

The installation hangs up at Extract: PdfPropertyExtension.README.txt.

I also closed explorer as you suggested, but that did not make any difference.

Also, I am not able to cancel or close the set-up (buttons are greyed out). I have to end task from task manager to get out..

Further details needed

I need to know what hangs during setup.
Could you please tell me what's the last line into the setup log?

I suppose explorer.exe process is hanging the setup.
You could try to close it when the setup is freezed, then relaunch it after setup completes (see here for details).

Waiting for your feedback...

Unable to install PDF Property Extension

I've been trying to install PDF Property Extension on Windows 7. Progress bar stalls at about 80%. Tried both versions, same result. Any suggestions?
