Dave,

Over the years, I've had a couple of updates go awry. It's been very rare but it has happened. What I have done in such circumstances is...

1. go to the link below

http://www.pgmusic.com/support_windowsupdates.htm

2. download the previous update (in this case it will be #516)

3. manually install the update (I always right-click on it and select 'run as administrator' to install; also, double-check the paths are correct when you get to that part of the installation.)

Now try starting BIAB.

Just in case this is useful information, the missing BBW.EXE sounds like it could potentially be related to your antivirus. Norton and McAfee have, in recent times, automatically deleted BBW.EXE without notification for a number of users on these forums.

Glad you got it working! I just pass on the above in case it's useful in the future.

Regards,
Noel
