I am following page for building chromedriver.exe from source code:
https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/master/docs/windows_build_instructions.md#Get-the-code
I have installed Visual Studio 2017 as stated.
Also downloaded and extracted depot_tools in C:\src\depot_tools.
I have installed Python 2 and msysgit previously.
I have added depot_tools in PATH System Variables.
I have also added 'DEPOT_TOOLS_WIN_TOOLCHAIN' variable in System Variables with value 0.
Now as stated I am running gclient command from cmd but nothing is working.
I can't move further.
Also if you have any Video Referral please share as I didn't get any on Google search.
And if you know it well and would like to help please share your email id or twitter handle because it seems hard to get answers to such queries as there are only few such questions on StackOverflow and that too uanswered. So a contact might be helpful.

I have set up a VSTS nuget feed. And I have pushed some packages two days ago. I was able to add those packages to my project. But I needed to push an other version for one of them. Made new nupgk version, pushed it and I can see it in VSTS, I can download it from there, Visual Studio 2017 is also listing it correctly but when I try to install it, I am getting an error:
Package 'whatever 1.0.1' is not found in the following primary source(s): 'https://whatever.pkgs.visualstudio.com/_packaging/feedname/nuget/v3/index.json'. Please verify all your online package sources are available (OR) package id, version are specified correctly. 0
What I have tried:
- waiting around 10 minutes
- restarted Visual Studio several times
- pasting the above url into a browser and refreshing it manually several times
One or more of these helped. But I would like to know if there is any canonic solution for that.
I used the answer widget to have some formatting. Still, this might not be "the" answer, as I don't know the mechanism beyond. But it looks to be a workaround.
Steps:
Create a solution with a library project (let's call it L01)
Add another library project to the solution (let's call it D01)
Make a nuget package from L01 (version 0.0.1)
Push the package to your VSTS feed
Manage packages for project D01 and browse your feed
Package L01 v0.0.1 will be listed
Add it to project D01, it will work
Edit L01 nuspec file and change version to 0.0.2
Build and push the new package
Go back to project D01 and refresh the package list. The update will be shown.
Try to update. It will fail with the error message from my question.
Now go to folder %localappdata%\NuGet\v3-cache (or equivalent)
Locate the folder corresponding to your feed and open it
Locate list_l01.lib_index.dat (where l01 is the package name) and delete it
Go back to project D01 and try to install the update. It will succeed.
Would be good if others could confirm. I have reproduced this several times.
Seems you are trying to download the package or packages that where just freshly pushed to VSTS nuget feed.
Since Visual Studio 2017 is listing it correctly, then the issue should not related to the feed on VSTS server.
If this occurs very recently(download the new refresh package) and your package is very large, this maybe a network delay. Suggest you use a fiddler trace when this issue happens again. This makes "some" sense, what you see is probably an incorrect propagation of pushed packages showing up in the search results but not yet available to download.
And some other also encounter the same issue and error as you.
FYI, I've been seeing this exact issue in the past month or so.
Switching between sources, uninstalling and reinstalling are some work
arounds, but not 100%. Pushing my own packages up to VSTS and then
it takes like 15 minutes to finally get it to install.
More details please take a look at this similar issue Package update not found when updating via Visual Studio Solution
Due to the administrative privilege of the application, I need to install my program including .exe and .dll in C:\DestFolder\SubFolder\ but I keep getting C:\Program Files\\[Manufacturer]\\[Product Name]\ where the placeholders are specified in the properties window.
I tried this article but no good.
Please don't give me answer like try changing the defaultlocation to C:\Destination\ of the Application Folder as I have already tried. Also I don't want solution like just change the installation destination path manually during the installation.
I have found the answer from this article:
"[ProgramFilesFolder] is built in, and correctly leads to the Program Files directory on the target machine, no matter how customized the setup of Window is..."
There might be tools out there that allow installing outside of Program Files.
[Edit] Infact I've found out this great extension for VS 2017 community called Wix. There's a guy who did a fabulous tutorial on it.
I installed a video game , but when I try launching it it just says this:
The application has failed to start because its side-by-side configuration is incorrect. Please see the application event log or use command-line sxstrace.exe tool for more detail.
I checked the event log and it says:
Dependent Assembly Microsoft.VC80.MFC,processorArchitecture="x86",publicKeyToken="1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b",type="win32",version="8.0.50727.6195" could not be found. Please use sxstrace.exe for detailed diagnosis.
I installed many patches but none of them have the exact number (version?)(8.0.50727.6195) and the game still doesn't work. Can you help me please?
PS: I use windows 10 64 bit
Edit: I forgot to mention that I already downloaded the version from this link: microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=26347 and the one from this link: microsoft.com/en-us/download/confirmation.aspx?id=26401 but it still doesn't work. I ran the first one as administrator and then restarted the computer, and then tried the second one. When I ran the second one it says the upgrade patch cannot be installed by the windows installer because the program to be updated may be missing, or the update patch may update a different version of the program.
What am I exactly supposed to do with the program I installed for the first link? I just ran it as administrator but it did nothing.
EDIT 2: The windows just updated the x64 files and the game works now. Thanks for the help!
The problem is that you didn't installed the correct SP1 security patched version.
This is the one version you need.
Select the 32bit version and install it. See also this KB Article.
BTW: Just 1min in Google and you would have found the solution.
I'm trying to install iCloud on my Windows XP Pro (SP3) PC. Officially it's supported only for Vista and later, but this hack is widely claimed to work:
Open iCloudSetup.exe file and unzip its files including
Navigate to and open the iCloud.msi with Orca.
In the left table select LaunchCondition. Then change in the right table “VersionNT> = 600” to “VersionNT> = 200” and Save.
Run modified iCloud.msi and install.
Run iCloud Control Panel, located in the Windows Control Panel, and set up as you want.
I tried that promising solution in vain. It seemed to successfully install iCloud, but whenever I try to run it I get
this obscure error
After much fruitless searching I've not found out how to proceed from there and would appreciate advice please.
That trick worked with only the firs versions of iCloud Panel, the v1.0.
For the v2.1 doing the trick the installer ran ok, but when trying to run the iCloud Panel it showed the error you're refering to.
I had some computers running with that older version without any problem.
Try downloading the v1.0 version here:
http://icloud-control-panel-for-windows.uptodown.com/descargar/22412
If you want to try the trick with the v2.1 you have the installer here:
http://icloud-control-panel-for-windows.uptodown.com/
Remember you need to extract the MSI from the exe to do the trick. After running the exe check the %TEMP% folder to get the MSI file.
I have been following the tutorial found here for a SpecFlow test report generator.
My issue is, when I run the tool, I receive the following message:
The attribute "Label" in element Target is unrecognized
I've found a few possible solutions, none of which have worked e.g. here
I am able to show that I am running version 4.x as when I run MSBuild using the Visual Studio 2012, command prompt I can see the following:
Microsoft (R) Build Engine version 4.0.30319.17929 [Microsoft .NET
Framework, version 4.0.30319.18052]
I have created a config file as suggested here
but unfortunately I am still getting the error. The project is running locally off git and this issue has been fixed in the past by using the config file, however since swapping to a VMware Virtual machine, it is now occurring again.
I have also right clicked > Properties which states that the file is using .NET 4.0, in addition created a Environment Variable linking directly to the MSBuild directory. I've spent a good while browsing the internet and cannot get this working. Please help!
Many thanks for any help you can provide,
Cheers!
Solved this with the internal devs. There was some problem with the Chromedriver update script which had been added by (I'm assuming NuGet)
Starting
<PropertyGroup Label="DownloadChromeDriverBuildTask">
and also:
<Target Name="DownloadChromeDriver" Label="DownloadChromeDriverBuildTask">
It was a small script that was installing ChromeDriver if it was not already available. Removing this seems to have resolved it. Hope this provides help to anyone with a similar issue.
