Subject:Problems with Acid 3e update

After installing the Acid pro 3e update, Acid refuses to open and gives me the message (translated):

Acid.exe is linked with the missing export Shell32.Dll-SHGetSpecialFolderPathA

That's what it says.
I tried to use the repair feature from the uninstaller and uninstalled/reinstalled, but that didn't help much.
Before, I updated Soundforge to 3f and Batch Converter to 5b without having any problems.

Does somebody know what to do?
Should I download it once more?

Thank you.

I would definitely try uninstalling the current install, reboot and delete any folder residue and then install the latest build. Restart after installing ACID as well.

The latest build is ~24.1 MB. Anything less is probably a corrupt or incomplete download.

Thanks for answering.
I just tried your suggestion, but acid still won't start.
The size of the download is 24,1 MB (25.363.544 bytes).
I will rollback to the previous version for now, thanks to drive image that's not that much of a hassle ;-)
