Today we will discuss how to fix the ISDone.dll component failure. “An error occurred while unpacking” - a message of this type quite often occurs among users of the operating systems Windows 8 and 7.
Antivirus
A failure of the form “ISDone.dll - an error occurred during unpacking” may occur during unpacking of an archive downloaded from the Internet, or when installing games with the Innosetup installation application. To solve this problem, first of all, turn off the antivirus and repeat the process again. If this method worked, you won’t have to do anything else, the problem will be fixed.
Item path
The error associated with ISDone.dll can not always be resolved by disabling the antivirus. A possible reason for this is the path to the material if it contains symbols of non-Latin origin. In other words, if the directory name is in Russian, for example, C: \ Games, we need to rename it. The path in our case should look like this: C: \ Games. The error "ISDone.dll: An error occurred while unpacking" may be repeated. Perhaps the path to the element to be processed is very long, while non-Latin characters are found several times in it. In this case, we transfer the file to the root directory of the main drive C or another suitable place with a short address.
Fraud
Please note, in order to resolve the issue of how to fix ISDone.dll, you may be advised on the Internet to download a file with the same name. Next, you will be prompted to install it in the system directory. You can also find programs that supposedly fix these errors. In reality, such methods will not work. We do not recommend that you download any files or applications, as they most likely carry a virus. At the moment, no means have been created to solve this problem, which can simply be downloaded from the network. Only manual settings can correct the situation. Be careful and do not fall into the hands of scammers!
Failure code and its types
Now let’s figure out what to do if we get the error “ISDone.dll - the archive is corrupted”. This failure may be accompanied by the following codes: 12, 7, 6. An English message may also be displayed: "ERROR: archive data corrupted". It is possible that a malfunction with the code “1” may occur. ISDone.dll-related error often occurs when installing Assassin's creed, Day One, Crysis Warhead, Resident Evil. There may be a failure during the installation of other gaming applications. We will talk about how to eliminate it in such a situation in the next section of this material.
Verification on a third-party personal computer
The failure described in this material may be accompanied by various messages. One of them looks like this: "ISDone.dll: this file is used by the installer for unpacking." To fix the problem, you need to perform a series of steps that at first glance may seem very strange, while the effectiveness of this approach is very high.
Move the used file to an external computer. We use a USB flash drive or a local area network for this. If the file works properly after the transfer, then the problem lies in the first computer. Note that there are several reasons for this situation, but the main problems include memory and system problems.
If a similar error appears on another computer, download the file in question directly from a previously used source on the Internet. Unpack or install the item. So, if the error is repeated during the transfer, download the file to a new PC, but from the previous source, and deploy it there. If these actions led to the stable operation of the package on the second computer, most likely, the first is not enough RAM to play the item.
To solve the problem, you need to deal with the replacement of the PC hardware, namely, you should install a more modern RAM module. It should be noted that the “ISDone.dll - error occurred during unpacking” failure itself is most often caused by hardware problems, problems directly in the Windows operating system rarely lead to this result.
If the above methods did not work, download the file from an alternative source. We can also use an application called Universal Unpacker. Original - Universal Extractor. This is a free program. With this solution, in some cases, it is possible to unzip the installed archives, which the system seems damaged.
RAM
If it is established that the reason for the failure of “ISDone.dll file is damaged” is RAM, disable the corresponding modules one at a time. We start the processed file after removing each of the memory elements. PC disassembly operations should be carried out only in the off state. We strongly recommend entrusting this operation to experts. This approach requires a lot of time, extreme caution and professionalism, but in some cases it can be effective. As a result, the file can earn. However, it is better to purchase new memory modules, if possible.

1. Disable antivirus protection.
2. We draw attention to the explanations following the word ERROR.

5. We apply the licensed version of the software.
6. Install RAR.
7. Install 7-zip.
8. Rename all the folders in the path to the application in Latin letters.

If you encounter the error described above, remember that, despite the fact that it refers to damage to the archive, in 99 percent of cases it is in order. In this case, establishing the causes of an error by its code is ineffective. If the description of the failure contains the following: “failed CRC Check”, this may indicate a valid archive corruption. If the note to the error says: "Decompression failed", the reason lies in the PC used. How to be in this situation - we have already considered above.
In step 9 of the instruction, a page file was mentioned. To work with it, we turn to the properties of the system. Open the "Advanced" section. We use the "Parameters" function. In the new window, again go to the "Advanced" tab. Next, in the item “Virtual memory” we use the “Change” function. Uncheck the box to automatically determine the size of the page file. Specify a local disk to place it. We use any volume, except for the system one, where there is a lot of free space. Specify the maximum value equal to the size of RAM, and click the "Set" button. Save the parameters.
