I downloaded Expression Studio 2.0 today and when installing it, it comes up with an error saying that &quot; Encoder 2 could not be installed because there was fatal error. I have tried running it again and again but no luck. I have also tried redownloading it, but that doen't work either.<br/><br/>Anyone got any ideas because it is really annoying me?<br/><br/>BTW I am running the installation again without installing Encoder.<br/><br/>I'll let you know what happens.© 2009 Microsoft Corporation.

Like I mentioned before I was going to try installing it again without Encoder, however that didn't work. So I downloaded at my college and it installed at home straight away with no problems. <br/><br/>The only problem I had was trying to run Media, but that was sorted up with an update.<br/><br/>Thanks again.</p>Mon, 11 May 2009 08:35:19 Z2009-05-11T08:35:19Zhttp://social.expression.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/general/thread/01548684-47db-4fb5-9309-ad2d5dded303#a12a563a-ac92-4f27-9f9b-c27910173528http://social.expression.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/general/thread/01548684-47db-4fb5-9309-ad2d5dded303#a12a563a-ac92-4f27-9f9b-c27910173528Marcos Beniteshttp://social.expression.microsoft.com/Profile/en-US/?user=Marcos%20Benites<p class=MsoNormal style="margin:0cm 0cm 10pt"><span style="line-height:115%;font-family:'Verdana','sans-serif';color:black;font-size:8pt" lang=EN-US>I have the same problem.<br/>I was able to install Expression Studio 2, but when I started any one of the programs, I was given a error message about licensing, then I uninstalled the product, but when I tried to install the installation didn't finished, had a fatal error, after looking at the log file I found:<br/><br/>1: InstallLicenses: ERROR: Failed to initialize SLDL.
