[Tex/LaTex] TexLive 2014 iso file doesn’t work to install it

installingtexlive

I am trying to install TexLive 2014 on my Windows XP. I create virtual drive with the iso.torrent file downloaded from here http://anorien.csc.warwick.ac.uk/mirrors/CTAN/systems/texlive/Images/ And then nothing works. On my computer there is created virtual disk TexLive 2014 but when I open it I receive message that "no access to the image file".

From different mirrors I tried another downloaded .iso files, not torrent files, I checked md5, everything is matched but still the same issue.

When I do the same procedure with TexLive2012.iso file everything works. What I am I doing wrong?

Best Answer

There is a problem with the autorun.inf file in TeXLive 2014. The instruction OPEN=install-tl.bat should be OPEN=install-windows-tl.bat.

If you extract its content, you only have to double-click install-windows-tl.bat.
