Connomar,

Build 1709 here too, laptop, and desktop.  No issues, and I uninstall before upgrading to newer versions each time.

We'll wait for you to elaborate further.

I think "Intel Inside" just means it has an Intel CPU. I don't think it says anything about its graphics capability.

"I just recently bought a Dell laptop workstation, which has ‘Intel Inside”."

So did I, whatever that means.  I am not that much of a computer guru but DPP4 seems to run fine for me.  Yes, it is infrequent use but I do try it from time to time.  Mostly when Canon upgrades something.  I keep hoping !!!!!!!!

 Actually, it does.

While I wasn’t trying to directly suggest anything about the graphics capability, “Intel Inside” actually suggests the inclusion of the standard Intel graphics chipset.  Any additional graphics board would be above and beyond the standard chipset.

Canon’s DPP software seems to be written against genuine Intel hardware, and NVidia graphics cards.

"...genuine Intel hardware, and NVidia graphics cards."

I think that is what my machine has.  It has 16MB of RAM and a third 2TB HD just for LR and PS to use exclusively..

I'm running with a 500GB SSD, a 1 TB conventional hard drive, and an nVidia GeForce GTX 1060 w 6GB RAM.  I use the local SSD for storing applications.  I use the local HD for downloading from camera, but store the images on a Western Digital NAS, running RAID 1, for editing.  Back it all up so that even BfromB would approve.

If you are running all your normal apps including LR and PS on a 500GB drive, you are probably starving PS and perhaps even LR.  PS and LR use so many swap files they like a lot of room that they don't have to compete for.

I stopped doing backups.  Last time I checked several months ago, there was over 200,000 photos in backups.  Nobody is ever going to want or even look through them.  So bye, bye.  Running four 2TB external drives and three 2TB internal drives is too much when nobody including myself don't care.  I tell what very few clients I have now, I will keep you job for six months then I'm done.

As I have an incomplete install, I can't uninstall, but I wonder if anyone could send me the uninstall.xml file from their computer which might enable me to determine how to get rid of the darn thing.

The message I get is: UniversalUninstaller.exe could not load Crogram Files (X86)\Common Files\Canon_Inc_IC\UniversalInstaller\Uninstall\Digital Photo Professional 4 (x64)\uninstall.xml
