Dec 10, 2009we have a user that my program works fine for.. and another that it just crashes for.. they get this error
"You cannot start application <App_Name> from this location because it is already installed from a different location."
then they run it up again and it comes up.. and then just closes..in reading some stuff online it says its a framework 2.0 sp 1 issue ?these pc's have 3.5, but my program uses all 2.0 stuff..so is this a 2.0 sp level issue ? or should I make my programs start to use framework 3.0 instead ?
Cannot Start Application Shell From Location Because It Is Already Installed From Different Location
Jul 21, 2009I have encounterd a problem when trying to re-enstall a program i have writen in vb 2008.I get the following message:"You cannot start application Shell from this location because it is already installed from a different location."This program is to be used on many workstation computers and i need to be able to update any changes by just reinstalling the program, no uninstalling needed first. If the program was installed from a cd first and needs to be updated from a flash disk this error will be a problem, if the update is from a cd as well then there is no problem.Is there a way to change the installation package to ignore where the program installs from and just update itself?

I can deploy and start the app on this third PC (but at the moment it is uninstalled there) .What file / entry in a file can I delete that I can install my application locally again (it runs in the debugger of the IDE)?

View 3 RepliesData File For Installed App Location
Jun 21, 2010I am using VS2008 and for the project I am creating, I have a "settings" text file I am using to save user defined settings like color theme, homepage, etcetera. It works fine, however, I am unsure as to how to handle the eventual distributed apps' destination folder/file.
Creating a pre-determined folder/file is easy enough, but what I'd like to do is make it part of the installed folder files, which should be:
I tried creating the file if it wasn't found, however this did not happen (Though I specified the above formatted pathway) perhaps because I was in debug but it should have saved the text file, which it did not and wasn't found anywhere after saving/creating one.
I have the InnoSetup application (Looks great BTW) and see I can include a starting default text file AND make a specific directory for it, but I am unsure as of yet how Inno works exactly, but would prefer testing it through debug before an install anyway. Wish SHOULD be able to be done, am I right?
The odd thing is that although the file was NOT created as specified when creating one, it DID save a setting when I re-ran/debugged the app. (Rather odd, how is this happening I wonder?)
Here is how I am trying to resolve my problem...[code...]
So I am also wondering... if I use the InnoSetup to "set up" the directory and file, and it is according to user-defined destination, how do I reflect that decision in my coding for reading and writting the file?
I could simply use a basic path like C:DATAFILES but this wouldn't be very professional, though fine for development purposes.

Windows Service Not Showing Up When Installed With Setup Project?
Aug 31, 2009I have a simple windows Service developed in VS.net 2008 and VB.net. When I install the service using Installutil.exe from the command prompt it is working like a charm.
When I try to add a setup project and set the output and build and install it though it says successfully installed, it is not showing up in the services.
The event log shows that it is successfully installed. I just did check the registry, it did place the assemblies in HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftinstallerassemblies.
But I don't understand why it is not showing up in the services listing. I refreshed and restarted.

View 9 RepliesGetting Location Of Executing Setup.exe
Apr 17, 2009I am using a installer class as I need a custom action that will read in a xml config file.So when the user double clicks the setup, there will be a config.xml file in the same folder. I would like to read in this config.xml file on install event. The folder will contain setup.exe and config.xml.However, it can't find the config.xml file as it is looking for it under C:windowssystem32. I found this out by using application startup. path. However, the setup folder which contains the setup and config.xml is located on my desktop.I thought it will look for it in the current location. Which would be the setup folder. The difficulty is that my setup folder will be downloaded from the Internet and any user could download it and unzip it anywhere on their computer.[code]

2 Group Box Components And Both Are Same Size,font,location And Visible Is False - Both Component Cannot Locate At Same Location
Mar 13, 2012I have 2 group box components and both are same size,font,location and visible is false. When i click button2, the groupbox1 won't appear(the group box2 is on bottom n group box1 is on top).
Example:
button1
groupbox1.visible=false
groupbox2.visible=true
button2
groupbox1.visible=true
groupbox2.visible=false
Because i want to show the different,so the location have a little different(actually both are same location). I think my code is no problem. The problem i guess is both component cannot locate at same location?
VS 2008 Round E.Location To Nearest Grid Square Location?
Nov 9, 2009I was using this old method of creating a bunch of rectangles when I need to get the location of a certain point within a grid so I could draw images on the grid. The thing is, I don't want to use rectangles, I want to be able to just round the location as if I were using rectangles. I need it to be able to round the point (66,70) to (50,50) so if you can imagine a grid and the mouse position being within that square in the grid, I need to get the location of the upper left corner of that square.
