Hello seti75. What site did you download from? You should only use the downloads from Microchip's website directly.

Try going to **broken link removed**, scroll all the way to the bottom, and click the one that says "MPLAB IDE v8.88". It will appear in your "downloads" folder when complete. double-click on the installer icon and follow the on-screen instructions. It should go fairly smoothly, if working correctly.

Hope this helps :)
Best wishes,
Matt

EDIT: You may have to extract the files with a file extraction tool before clicking on the installer, since I think it is a .zip extension.

It is on the site of microchip that I ais downloaded different versions of mplab
 
Try removing what you downloaded and attempt to re-install. It's possible you lost internet connection briefly during download and it caused the file to be unreadable. It's happened to me before. Try that and see if that helps.

Regards
 
I just tried again with version 8.80 download on the web site of microchip
-> exactly the same error ! I don't understand

Could you walk through everything that you are doing so we can try to figure it out? You might be missing a step somewhere.
 
run as administrator...problem solved, mplab perfect installation!

Thanks to all, this forum is still very "live"...
 
Well many thanks to Ian. I would never have thought of running as admin :p:D
