Question:
Why am I getting the error "Can't load package c:borlanddelphi6Binproide60.bpl" when I run Delphi 6?
Answer:
If you had the free personal edition installed previously on the same machine, and you registered the Professional of Enterprise edition with the same ID numbers, it is possible that the registry settings from the Personal edition are not being overwritten. This may be a problem with the registration system. The easiest way to resolve it is to register with a different name/email address than the one you used for the downloaded personal edition. This may require unistalling everything and starting over.
When removing Delphi from your machine be sure to use Add/Remove programs from the Control Panel.
If you are using Windows 2000 you can try running the utility D6RegClean.exe located in the Delphi bin directory (or on the CD in the InfoExtras folder) after you unistall the Personal edition and before installing the Professional edition.
Note: You can not have two different editions, such as Delphi 6 Personal and Delphi 6 Professional, installed simultaneously. You can have different versions though, such as Delphi 5 and Delphi 6.
