View 1 RepliesI used VB6 to create an EXE file that uses MSComm1.The program runs OK in my XP computer and also in my Win7 computer (that has VBE installed).It would not run on my Vista laptop. I installed the VB runtime files (even though Microsoft says they are not compatible with Vista/Win7) but with no success.However, when I installed VBE on the laptop, it now runs the EXE quite happily.Does installing VBE also install a different set of runtime files?Is it posible to distribute my program to my friends who have Vista or Win 7, without them having to first install VBE?

I've tried using the P&D Wizard to specifiy loading it into the SysWOW64 folder but I'm not sure if I'm doing this correctly. I use the P&D Wizard then load everything into Inno for delivery but my customers who now have Win7 or Vista can't use my product.
View 2 RepliesI have a program for playing MP3 files using Media Player. The program developed originally under Vista using VBExpress 2010 works fine.
But when I run it under Win7 parts of the program don't work. In both cases the audio is played OK but under Win7 the 'playstatechange' events don't seem to happen!?!
I have put a breakpoint in event and under Vista the events happen...under Win7 the breakpoint is never reached. In both cases I am using VB Express 2010 and running under the debugger. I have seen this problem reported before in the forums but no answer was apparent.
Ok I have a application that works great on XP, but in windows 7 it will not let me write to my login file, says access is denied since I am not running as admin. Log file is located in "C:Program FilesCompany NameProductMyLog.LOG"
View 1 RepliesI have an app developed in VB that works fine on Vista machines but fails on Win7. The offending line of code merely references a variable stored in a module. Evidentally, something is quite different on Win7. How to I find and fix this behavior?
The code is very straightforward. The error occurs in the Application Startup event.
Public Sub MyApplication_Startup(ByVal sender As Object,
ByVal e As ApplicationServices.StartupEventArgs) _
Handles Me.Startup

View 5 RepliesWe have code in our former VB6 application, that ported fine to VB.NET, that plays a simple AVI file of the typical "flying folders" and "spinning maginfying glass" AVI. Under Windows XP, our application ran fine and everything was good.
Then we had customers start using Vista and Win7 and this stuff crashes. We were using the MS Common Controls (SP4) and then (SP6) - utilizing the Animation player. Now - these dont work and we get nasty errors.
I searched Microsoft and the web to answer the "what now?" question and though there are numerous suggestions, none of them work. We cant use Media Player because we dont want any menu - just the graphic. We dont know why, with the cool tools given in .NET, there is no animation player (seems a huge oversight...) But we need to get "unstuck" on this one, and we need that fast...
So, How does on play a simple AVI file using VB.NET code? What DLL or OCX does Microsoft recommend and is there a place we can find some sample code for it?

View 8 RepliesIt's possible to disable the Vista UAC programatly?
I have to port my application to Vista, and I need to disable the UAC, also temporarily..
I'm trying to make buttons that will open each of the "special folders" in Windows Vista. Here's an example:
Private Sub Button5_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button5.Click
Process.Start("explorer.exe", Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.MyDocuments))
End Sub
As you can see in the above code, the button will open the Documents folder. My problem is the only folders this method can open are the documents, pictures and music folders, while I also want to open these folders below:
Downloads
Videos
User folder (aka the folder that has the user name on it)
Computer (aka My Computer in XP)
how to do that?
I have a question regarding the Vista Speech API. I have written a program using the Vista SAPI to recognize commands with the inprocRecoContext in VB.NET. Everything works well so far - the speech recognition is trained for more than one voice and it works really perfect! The problem is that after a while the speech recognition engine trains itself to a specific user or even to background noise such as the tv and the recognition doesn't work anymore. When I copy back the original trained profile it works again for a day or so.So my question is: Is it possible to turn off the automatic learning of the speech recognition engine?

View 2 RepliesI don't want my programs to be cracked. I have this simple authorization system that prompts my users to enter their forum credentials (I have a forum and the users must be registered members to use the programs).So I made a php script that will take in 3 strings sent in by my applications and it will check against the database if that user exists and is of the proper group and it will display a message on the page and my application then looks for the response in the page source which says if this particular user is allowed to use the program or not.
View 4 RepliesI have a VB.Net exe application that has a function in it that contains my encryption method that is used through out my application. This function is used to generate all my encrypted passwords and files etc. therefore for obvious reasons I do not want this to be visible to end users. In my application this is fine as it is compiled as a .exe. However I want to now create a ASP.Net web based version of my application.
Now here comes the question, if I was to create a web version of my application then this function would be visible to the end users along with a large number of other functions that if edited could bypass security and license control.I would like to know what is the best way to keep my ASP.Net webbased version secure from tampering, or is ASP.Net not the best for this?

View 2 Repliesi have created some shareware applications. I implemented the following mechanism for piracy protection. Before Windows Vista and Windows 7 i did write a dll file to the System32 folder with an encrypted license key. Also in the Registry under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE i inserted a registry key.
The problem is that with Windows Vista and Windows 7 due to the User Account Control (UAC) this is denied.
I want to ask : what other mechanism can be implemented ? Where should i store the encrypted key file and the registry key.
I want that the application can be installed for all users of a computer only once.
If i stored the key in the user's application data directory then another user could easily just install it under another user account. Also i do not want to put the key file in the application directory because that would be too obvious.
note that i create the registry key with my application and not with the installer.
I am making a program with a very good HWID system, but so far it uses a standard WebClient control, I want to know how to make it more secure, like possibly encrypting the connection to a site (Uses PHP), or making sure the connection isnt being tampered with. are their any tools/pieces of code to do these checks/encryption?[code]...
