In the only problem similar to mine that I was able to find the person was given the advice to change 'AnyCPU' to 'x86' in projects/properties/compile/advanced compile options. I tired doing this but was unable to find any setting that I could change to 'x86'.

I normally install my application in a directory in the c: drive as the software is only used within the company.There is some simple security; the program writes a 'bat' file that gets the volume serial number this then this is used to generate a licence file. Both of these files are written in the application directory.I'm giving the program to an external client and am going to install the program in the program files directory - but I find I cannot write a file to the Windows 7 program files directory.

View 1 RepliesI have an installer class that presents a form to the user. One of the functions of the form is to browse to a file using the open file dialog. This form functions fine when used in an application but hangs when calling OpenFileDialog.ShowDialog() during an installation on a Windows7 or Vista machine (Windows XP it works as expected). I get the same rusult when 'run as administrator' and with UAC off. I also get the same results when calling SaveFileDialog.ShowDialog() in the same context. The call doesn't throw an exception but causes the form to stop responding. Any suggestions on how to get this to work correctly?
View 6 RepliesI've been doing some more experiments and have summarized the query as below: I've created the simplest application. A project with a plain form, which writes text file within its application directory. Simple as that.Supposing this was my application which I want to distribute on the world web. I've created a basic installer for this using NSIS installer. The Installer installs my application in a folder created inside Program Files. The OS is Windows7 and UAC is enabled.Now I know many people have been facing difficulties in accessing files inside the Program Files folder. My app is simply creating a plain text file, nothing more, and within its own application directory. It is giving Access Denied error. But if I right-click on the EXE and run it as Administrator, then it works ok.The only solution thats available is not to write in the application folder, and write text file in some other folder which is not protected. My question is that other programs that are installed on my system are also doing it. I have a temperature monitoring software called SpeedFan on my system, it creates log files within its app directory. All other softwares create log files within their app directories, why cant I?I just have to make a small log file for my application and Win7+UAC is not letting me do it. I don't want to write the small file in any other folder. How are the other softwares accomplishing this ?

i am completely clue less for this error since this program works fine on xp but doesn't work on windows 7.
I'm using the following code to iterate through and find windows containing specific strings in their title bars. I have two projects containing this identical information, yet for some reason - it works when targeted to x64, but FindWindowLike returns 0 always on x86. I need this to run in x86.I am developing this on Windows 7 x64, but it needs to run on my machine as well as XPx32. What I can't fathom is why it compiles/runs on x64 but not x32 (considering I'm targetting user*32*.dll)
