I am trying to install Unified Functional Testing (UFT) trial version. I have downloaded the software, but when I tried to install, it failed and giving me the following error,
Error reading file: c:\users\username\downloads\application name\bin
When I looked into explorer I was not able to find "bin" folder. Would someone please help me to overcome this problem.
These are my UFT 15.0.1 Install notes:
There are two approaches for installing and this work best for me.
Download the Setup.exe – Skip the DVD .zip!
Run the file extract to a folder near the root.
Set the extraction path to a temp folder.
I usually put mine on the D: drive as my C: space is becoming increasingly limited.
After the installation is complete UFT will ask you to restart your system.
It will then display a dialog with Status: Removing Shortcuts
This can take up to 10 minutes to complete so be patient!
Once complete: Restart your computer a second time. (Very Important!)
Final Tip: I'm not sure UFT offers the option for an installation path. If you need the space on the C: drive, I recommend after installation to creating a Symbolic Link from a larger drive and moving the files there, if possible.
When creating a new Project definitely put that on a large drive near the root. The default path is really buried.
