Image Browser EX for Windows stuck in verifying

[Argentina]

Canon PowerShot SD1100 IS needs Image Browser EX update.  I believe the file IBXW_INST_1_4_0_5_U01.zip is the correct one but after clicking on the file, there is a little window that says is verifing and a green bar runs and runs nonstop.

Can anyone help? All help is very much appreciated.

According to the Canon site for your camera the file is IBXW_1_4_0_5_U01_9L.zip. Hopefully that will resolve the issue.

My OS is Win 8 Pro and USB connection. The file I am trying to install suppose to be the correct one but as I stated the verifying process does not stop and of course I am not able to install the file.

I do not know what to do because my knowledge about computers and cameras is limited and hope some one will help me with this issue, something I will appreciate very much.

One quick thought, and please forgive me if it was obvious. Did you unzip the file per the instructions below?

1. Download "IBXW_INST_1_4_0_5_U01_9L.zip" from the download page.

2. Double-click "IBXW_INST_1_4_0_5_U01_9L.zip". After decompressing the file, "IBXW_INST_1_4_0_5_U01_9L" will be created.

3. Double-click "IBXW_INST_1_4_0_5_U01_9L" to display "IBX14INST.exe".

4. Double-click "IBX14INST.exe".

5. Follow the instructions on the screen to perform the installation.

* The latest version will be installed using the auto-update function.
* For installation, it is required to connect the camera. By connecting the camera, appropriate functions for the camera will automatically added via the Internet.

Yes, I did.  The problem is with installation. Verifying the camera does not stop.

Hello Argentina,

It's possible that other devices on this computer are preventing the camera from verifying.  We suggest only connecting the PowerShot to your computer, and have other devices unplugged for the time being.  This would include other cameras, printers and scanners.

I am having the same problem (stuck in "Verifying the device")

Using file IBXW_INST_1_4_0_5_U01_9L.zip of 2014-11-25 downloaded on 2015-01-10.

Windows 7 Pro x64 SP1

Rebuilding clean install on a new disk (minimal cruft)

No USB devices connected except camera (PowerShot S100), keyboard and mouse (suggestion made in previous comment).

No related error messages in the Event Log (looked in Windows > Applications as suggested in another thread on this problem).

When camera was connected, it was detected and drivers loaded. Can see the camera with other apps (that is, evidence that the USB ports and the cable are working). Have tried on different USB ports on the computer and with a different cable. Have rebooted multiple times and retried installation.
