Neither. I go into a loop. It says it cannot locate the file and sends me to the Store, then at the store it says already installed. I had a CE-34054-6 Corrupt Database error, and I get the CE-38605-2 Already installed error.
I cannot get ShareFactory to work, I have deleted all related apps and additions in the Notifications>>Downloads and still receive the error.
I have rebuilt the Database a few times. Full power off, waited over 20 seconds etc.
Anything I am missing other than complete restart??
