Release 4.0.60 is outdated and installer 0.8.6 too. Please delete the 
currently used installation dir (not the directory where the files are 
downloaded) and retry with the newest installer in developer mode from  
http://download.cegit.de/kde-windows/installer/kdewin-installer-gui-0.9.0-1.exe.  
If there are still errors, please report again.
