I have the same error when installing on a brand new machine ri=unning WindowsXP, SP2. I have the latest JRE installed.

I have read messages on other forums about changing the Registry, but not sure what exactly to put into the Registry. Also, I have removed firewalls and Antivirus guards. Still nothing.

I have a Laptop , WindowsXP, no SP2. This allowed OpenCascade to be installed. This machine also had previous versions of OpenCascade on it. Not sure if that is relevant.

There seems to be a few people who have this problem. Please could someone from the OpenCascade team take a look at this and post a reply on this forum.

Thanks for any help.

I met the same problem too, Here's my steps to solve it:
1. unzip your OpenCASCADE_win32.exe using winRAR
2. Open win32\setup.jar using winrar
find and import c88d9316cd259c34faaeb08b9cf61691\win32reg\r_EXPLORERPLUGINREGISTRY_WIN_01\DocumentExtension.reg to registry

3. install again, it should be successful
