Trying to install Steam and MSXML.

I'm trying to install Steam. But when i install it it says: "An error occurred while running the 'Creating the Steam bottle' task

cxbottle:error: unable to create the 'Steam' bottle in '/home/zorin/.cxoffice/Steam'". So i click on "Try Again" and then it says: "An error occurred while running the 'Creating the Steam bottle' task

cxbottle:error: the 'Steam' bottle already exists". Then i clicked "Skip This Step". And then everything when fine, i think it's very weird. Until it says: "An error occurred while installing Microsoft XML Parser (MSXML) 3.0

The installer has exited but Microsoft XML Parser (MSXML) 3.0 does not seem to be installed". I keep clicking "Try Again", but the same thing came over and over.

So i searched from the Crossover website for MSXML, downloaded it and ran it. Then the same thing came: "An error occurred while installing Microsoft XML Parser (MSXML) 3.0

The installer has exited but Microsoft XML Parser (MSXML) 3.0 does not seem to be installed".

I don't know what's going on here.

Is it possible that you have a bottle called "Steam" that is in a broken state? Try rm -r /home/zorin/.cxoffice/Steam .
