- On Windows Vista® and Windows 7TM, a spurious warning message has been observed. If you receive a warning at the end of the installation (stating that setup may not have completed successfully), but you did not see any errors during the actual install, please disregard the warning about setup not completing successfully.
- On some systems with 64-bit processors and 64-bit Windows 7, setting hardware-based data breakpoints can make the debugger unstable. On such systems, the problem can be avoided either by not using hardware-based data breakpoints or by installing 32-bit Windows 7.

- During installation of the update, you might encounter Installer error 2318, "Insufficient privileges to modify etm.exe and etm.jdbg" if installation of the ITE/ETM files was turned off in a previous install.

- Click Start | Embarcadero RAD Studio XE | Modify, Repair, Uninstall.
- On the Select Features page of the installer, locate the Integrated Translation Environement feature in the custom install list.

- Now you can install Update 1.
