FREEWARE. If you need to install EccoPro in XP/VISTA/Win7/Win8/Win10 and the normal setup32.exe install (also available in another board of this forum) doesn't work for you... this should!
(At present there is an 'install' package available on another site with corruption issue. Reinstall using this .zip may help. For files created with corruption from the corrupted install set, if you have strange problems such as inability to print, memory errors, etc., the EM Advanced Diagnostics Toolkit can help) Just click here, unzip into any directory and run! 
Extensively tested,
in case it helps you... Everything goes on one Directory. Reg file is set up for that one directory to be c:\Program Files\EccoPro\
May not require the reg file to run, and, may not require install (in XP) in "c:\Program Files\EccoPro\" to use with reg file. In 64 bit Vista be sure to install in Vista's special folder area for 32 bit programs. In 64 bit Win7 or Win8, generally best NOT to install in 'special' 32 bit directory, rather, install in 'regular' folder such as "c:\Program Files\Ecco32\".
Ecco32.exe is the program to run (main ecco file)
STEPS TO INSTALL::
1. Unzip to your computer. In 32 bit XP, this may be to *ANY* directory you choose. The .reg file is set up to work with directory 'c:\Program Files\EccoPro\' so if you want to be 100% 'sure', SIMPLY UNZIP THE 'ECCOPRO' DIRECTORY (COMPLETE WITH FILES AND SUBDIRECTORIES, JUST AS IT IS) ONTO THE 'C:\PROGRAM FILES' DIRECTORY ON YOUR COMPUTER, ie. so the directory 'c:\Program Files\EccoPro' is created and contains the files & directories contained in 'EccoPro' in the zip file).
2. Double click on the 'EccoPro.reg' file and choose 'Install' or 'Add information to registry'. (You can also run the EccoPro.reg from within Ecco as a launch, doing so one time will install registry entries properly in most cases.)
3. You are done. Simply run ecco32.exe which is "Ecco Pro". (You can make a shortcut, or add to your start menu as you desire.
That's all.....! 
Please report back...

I downloaded your zip file, installed it and it seems to be running perfectly on my vista machine.
Thank you, thank you, thank you. By the way, perhaps you should note that your software comes complete: It contains the Ecco software, so I found it was helpful to delete all traces of Ecco that were on my (failed) attempt to use setup32. After installation of your file, I copied an actual data file from another computer, and so far it is working great. Thank you, thank you.
by the way, I did not have to fiddle with my registry in any way.

recap of instructions:
everything goes into one directory. and ecco32.exe should run once files are copied to that directory.
likely can be anywhere, but if not work...
then... should go to c:\Program Files\EccoPro\
and...
double click to run the ".reg" file and "Import" the values if prompted.
(ps: If you distribute any part of this file, please attribute it... ie. forums.eccomagic.com)
