note syphilis <i>ActivePerl installs normally in C:\Perl</i><br><br>Yes, that's the default location, but the option to override that default and install some place else is also made available. <br><br><i>All the stuff should be gone if deleting this folder... and that is what he did</i><br><br>That's the great mystery. Perl-5.14, it's claimed, has been removed and replaced by perl-5.16 - yet the OP loads a perl.exe that needs perl514.dll. This just doesn't add up.<br>(The fact that the OP hasn't replied to this thread suggests to me that the problem has already been resolved.) <br><br><b>Update:</b> Ooops ... seems she has responded, but provided no enlightenment. <br><br>Cheers,<br>Rob 1013036 1013098
