The SAP Front-End Setup has not successfully installed all selected components on your computer, either because a component could not be installed or the process has been aborted.

Click Finish to exit the wizard.

The following program files are missing on the installation source:

c:\sapexport34567\others\sapgui620\gui\windows\win32\sapgui\filc\odbc\mscreate.dir

c:\sapexport34567\others\sapgui620\gui\windows\win32\sapgui\xxl\saplotgr.gid

c:\sapexport34567\others\sapgui620\gui\windows\win32\sapgui\xxl\saplotuk.gid

The installed applications may not function correctly until all program files are successfully installed. For detailed error descriptions, please open file://C:\SAPEXP_{1\Others\SAPGUI}1\GUI\WINDOWS\WIN32\setup\saplogvw.exe .

Hi Anand,

I would not care about those files, because they are unneccessary. mscreate.dir is a 0 byte file which just tells that microsoft has created this directory. The *.gid files are winhelp files that get created when you first use the help function.
