Print2PDF Error Message code 80040154

Asked By FrancesHB 20 points N/A Posted on - 10/16/2011

Hello, TechyV! I'm having trouble installing Print2PDF software on my computer.

I have installed this program on my laptop, which runs on OS Windows Vista. My desktop has Windows XP as OS.

Do I need to change my desktop's OS? If this is not the reason for the error, please give suggestions or similar situations.

Thank you very much!

Print2PDF Error Message code 80040154

 

Upgraded from print2PDF SE 5.0 to 6.1. I have noticed that after re-installing the Print2PDF on the local workstation that some users are receiving the following error following the reboot:

Print2PDF error code 80040154. Class not registered

To correct the problem I've had the users uninstall the print2PDF printer on their local workstation and re-install it, and then reboot again.

The users that have experienced the problem were all running Windows XP SP2 with all the security patches thru December 2003 installed.

I suspect the problem has to do with installing the Print2PDF 6.1 over the top of the 5.0 install without first uninstalling it..
