error fetching release list

Post by Ghetty »

Ciao, AP solved a huge problem on my notebook so I wanted to help a friend for his (crap Windows update... :evil: ) but there's no way I can have it running properly... :( Windows 7 64b SP1, I tried reinstalling several times, running as admin, copuing bin folder file in AP dir, still I have this error fetching release list message...

Am I missing something ? :geek:

Looks like you may have a firewall/Anti-virus issue. Are either types of software installed?

Ciao, no firewall and I don't have any antivirus (it's not my pc), no proxy or stuff like that.
I'll check again because I also thought of something blocking the fetch, but internet is working normally so I don't understand why...have to solve it today/tomorrow as I have to get back the pc.

Anyway they will get back crapped as before, so there's no problem...it's just that I wanted it to be solved in an "elegant" way instead of a brutal formatc c: or a windows 10 clean install :-O

thx

You have to make sure curl.exe is not getting blocked. That is what does the downloading for AP.
