Remove A File Under System32 Drivers Folder?
Nov 24, 2010
Let me start this again. I just started working at a company and this company sells customer label printers and its software. The printer drivers are not designed well and creates problems between version updates. When a customer calls in and compalins that are some communication problems, we have to login to their computer and remove printer, it's drivers and driver files that gets installed into system32 folder.
So, my goal was to have the customer download a file , run it and remove these files before they download the latest files.[code]...

I have a very simple app (at the moment) that stores file names/paths and folder names/paths in an SQL database and displays them in a ListView and TreeView respectively. All fine and dandy.I have an option to remove a file or folder from the appropriate database table and then recreate the associated list.[code]I've checked and double checked the folder table adapter (even to the point of recreating it c/w Insert, Update and Delete commands) to no avail.

In a solution with multiple projects, one project that compiles to a .exe and a .dll has hitherto been successfully included in the Application Folder list and worked fine. After a recent revision to that project I deleted the .exe reference in the Application Folder list to remove both files prior to using Add > File to relist the new versions, but somehow although the .exe has gone the .dll remains in the listing and I now can't get rid of it - the right-click Delete function is disabled, and I can't see another way to remove this orphan file reference. Also if I now Add > File and point to the new .exe to bring it into the File System Application Folder list, after a couple of seconds the whole VS environment closes without an error message and I have to open VS again to restart.
Does anyone know how to unscramble this - presumably by editing something to remove the orphan .dll from the list? I use VS-2010 but this solution was imported and updated from VS-2005 some months ago, and since then has been fine.

I tried using the cmd("cmd.exe", "sdclt.exe") and just "sdclt.exe" But when i use the cmd, it just opens the command window, but not the program. When i use just sdclt.exe, it does nothing.

Followup to a previous post: It's been determined that Windows Device Drivers cannot be written in VB.NET; that's being dealt with separately.
What I'm interested to know here is if there's a DotNET Framework facility for adding/removing/managing device drivers; for example, can I build a VB.NET application to list loaded drivers, or drivers attached to a specific device, then load or unload those drivers as needed? It never hurts to try. In a worst case scenario, you'll learn from it.

At this time I am using VBScript to drive files thru a printer driver. Each file has to be ran at all the different preferences the drivers can offer. (papersize, dpi, simplex/duplex, etc.). I am developing a VB application and I want to drive the files with the app. I want to make setting changes with my app. and then set the driver accordingly and run the files. When I finish I want to dynamiclly change the settings and then run the files again. Until I have driven them with all the different settings.

i am trying to redistribute my app that uses Oracle 11g:
Imports Oracle.DataAccess.Client
The problem i am having is that it will not run on a machine that doesnt seem to have the correct drivers that its looking for. When i install ODAC 11.2 Release 3 (11.2.0.2.1) with Oracle Developer Tools for Visual Studio on the test VM it works just fine but thats a 230+mb file to download and install! Not to mention that if the user already has Oracle 10/11g on their machine that it may mess up their current connections/etc by installing that setup file.Is there another setup package that i can install that only has the Oracle Data Provider for .NET 2.0 11.2.0.2.0 or whatever its needing from that ODAC 11.2 Release 3 file.

Why would database drivers work in the development environment of VB.Net and not once the project is built and installed on the same pc? I've tried the MS ODBC Oracle driver. I've tried various ODBC datasources. All work when I am in the development environment but none once I build and install. No matter whether the configuration is Debug or Release. This is the only project having this problem. I have other apps (VB.Net) that access the same database (Oracle 9.2) with no problem.The environment variables are the same during both types of runs. The error messages vary depending upon the driver being used.
