General ⇒ Fontconfig error: Cannot load default config file

[koleygr]

Hi,

I installed texlive 2015 on windows 7 and I tried to uninstall it from E:
and install it on C: (SSD).

When I first try to uninstall it, it said something about error in uninstall
and then after many tries it shows a terminal for a moment and does not uninstall.

I have to make a project in LaTeX untill tomorrow.
Please help me uninstall it and install it again from the beggining.

PS:Before try to uninstall I had an error like:
(e:/program files/texlive/2015/texmf-dist/tex/latex/euenc/eu1lmr.fd)Fontconfig error: Cannot load default config file
E:/program files/texlive/2015/texmf-var/fonts/cache does not exist.
Kpathsea is not working.

No idea about TeX Live in Windows, especially since you mention an error message but not tell what it is.

I hear online compilers like Overleaf and ShareLaTeX do a quite good job. Since you are on a close deadline, i wouldn't waste time on uninstalling/installing now and use one of the online compilers.

Thank you for the reply

I have already metion the problem.

The problem after reinstall is:
(c:/texlive/2015/texmf-dist/tex/latex/euenc/eu1lmr.fd)Fontconfig error: Cannot load default config file
C:/texlive/2015/texmf-var/fonts/cache does not exist.
Kpathsea is not working.

hi,I had the same problem, How did you resolve it?

Hi cytacc,

welcome to the forum!

Can you post some details of that problem? On the one hand I guess it's not the very same as above (uninstalling TL 2015 on E: and installing on C: afterwards, Windows 7 and SSD, ... ) and on the other hand there was not much detail posted yet. Perhaps you can share your log file and other error messages.
