I've reinstalled dell dock on my Inspiron 1545 Windows 7 Home Premium machine several times. Crashed again and I'm stuck. I normally-
1) Uninstall
2) Search for any references to Delldock (including hidden folders) and delete
3) Reinstall.
Has worked fine in the past, but I don't think I got everything removed this time before I started the reinstall. After several failed attempts including 2 restarts, I went in and cleaned up the files. This time when I run DellDock16a_setup_eng.exe, I get a message I've never seen before -
Error
"Could not access network location \Docs."
I get a "Fatal derror during installation" and I'm done.
As you are confirming that you have uninstalled all the previous files but it sounds like its still not completely uninstalled.I suggest you to try to install the older version from the link below,if it gets installed successfully you can update it later.
Use the link below to download and install the older version of Dell dock:
Recently, I found problem with Mcafee and Mcafee ran "sfc /scannow" to find error. So I had to re-install Windows 7 OEM. I need to reinstall Dell Dock. For my case also, it reporting \Docs and the link provided above is reporting no file. Can you help? Regs Abhijit
Thanks Roshan for your reply. However, it could not solve any problem. I am getting the same ERROR : "could not access network location \Docs". I ran CCLEANER to erase broken registries. Please advise.
Please try to download and install it from the above link. If issue persists then create a new user account, try to install it under new user account and see if it gets installed.
