I have downloaded and installed adobe digital edition 3 in my windows 8 laptop. But it fails to open. I get an error message saying "adobe digital edition has stopped working. A problem caused the problem to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available". I have downloaded the set up file from the adobe site from the link http://download.adobe.com/pub/adobe/digitaleditions/ADE_3.0_Installer.exe. Can anyone help. I have bought online books and I am unable to read them unless this is installed.

I tried all that was suggested in the links provided. But the thing just does  ot work. However I have dowloaded a window application eBook de Reader and it is permitting me to read the books. However I find it really surprising that a company like Adobe does not adress the problems with  upgrades for windows. Thank for all the help.
