Try installing the Virtual DJ .exe file as administrator (right click to get the options)
Please let me know if this works

What OS are you installing it to?
Can you check it has created a user>virtualDJ>skins folder and have a look what's in it.

The most common cause of this error is installing the software while logged in as one user (E.g: Fred) and then trying to run it as a different user (E.g: Joe.)
The other user is missing the My Documents\VirtualDJ folder or some of its default contents (E.g: Skins folder.) The program will not run without this.
To resolve, please either:
(1) Install the software as the user you will be running it as.
(2) Manually copy the My Documents\VirtualDJ folder across to the other user.
Another cause is installing the software without administrator privileges under Vista or Windows 7. Right-click on the VirtualDJ installation file and choose Run as administrator.

The other user is missing the /users/USERNAME/Documents/VirtualDJ folder (Or for new installations of v7.0.3 or above, /users/YOURNAME/Library/VirtualDJ folder.) The program will not run without this.
To resolve, please either:
(1) Install the software as the user you will be running it as.
(2) Manually copy the Documents/VirtualDJ and/or Library/VirtualDJ folder across to the other user.
If the above does not help, please try the following:
(1) Delete the following file: MacintoshHD -> Users/YOURNAME/Library/Preferences/com.atomixproductions.virtualdj.plist
(2) Go to the Download Center and download the latest installation file: http://www.virtualdj.com/download/updates.html
(3) Install the software using the installation file that you downloaded above.

Posté Sat 11 Jun 11 @ 6:59 pm
Hello im having the same problem. I checked to see if it was a problem with the user files but that is fine. I am running windows 7 64 bit. For some reason however the option to run the installer as an admin is not shown for me. (I know I am set to admin because i can do this with other programs).
Please help?
Thank you!
(can run the virtual DJ LE program as an admin but the error persists.)
