LyX installation aborted after the MikTex installation
After extracting basic files LyX installer prompting to install MikTex choosing default options, which I did and it installed successfully,
MikTex after exiting the Miktex installation LyX giving the error saying that no LaTex distrbution found. then deleting extracted files but hung at removing C:Program Files\LyX 2.0
What's the solution for this.

Re: LyX installation aborted after the MikTex installation
Windows 7 (64bit), CZ language. Miktex installs without any problem, I can use it, it works, but Lyx is just unable to find it in its default directory ( C:\Program Files (x86)\MiKTeX ).

Re: LyX installation aborted after the MikTex installation
As for a work around, you might consider uninstalling everything. Then, as Administrator, install MikTeX separately (before LyX). Then install LyX.
You might also consider installing LyX 2.1beta1 (in the same way as above).
ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/devel/lyx-2.1 ... ller-1.exe
(note that LyX 2.1beta2 was just released yesterday. My based-on-nothing guess is that there will be Windows installer for it within a week)
Please let us know if you find a fix.
