Mini Osk At Windows Login For Vista?
Jul 16, 2009
I just got finished writing a mini on screen keyboard for the xp login screen.Does anyone know if this will be easily possible with Vista, or 7 ?If not, what are the hitches?
I was beta testing 7 until recently, so I don't want to waste time re-installing it for no reason.

i want to create an enhanced login screen for a windows vista computer. On my laptop i am able to scan my finger to login instead of using a password. This fingerprint scanner is a program/process on my computer. If this program is able to detect a finger print being scanned and then act accordingly on the login screen, even when the user has not logged in yet, then what i want to do is possible.
All i want to do is create my own security/login screen, perhaps mine can replace the default windows vista one on my computer.
So here are my main questions:
1. How do i make my program/process run on the login screen, before the user signed in? (So i may use my own login program)
2. Depending on the anwser to question 1, how do i replace the default login screen?

creating a mini mp3 library and a mini mp3 player?
1. With the library, should I use a database or how would I create a file holding Title, Artiste, Filepath to MP3 file.
2. With the player, is there a built in mp3 feature in Visual Basic Express Edition 2008?

basically i want to create a login to my program which uses the same username and password as windows login.I already know how to retrieve username and auto place it in the username box using
TextBox1.Text = Environment.UserName.ToString
i wondered is there an easy way to only allow access if the password matches up to their logon? i dont know about setting up databases but i dont think this option would work because each member of staff can personally choose their password.

i 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 develop applications in Visual Basic.NET (Visual Studio 2005) for a long time on Windows Vista without problem.
Now, I'm changing my laptop, and the new has installed the Windows 7. So, I reinstalled VS 2005, taking care to install the Vista compatibility. Thus, the version of my current VS 2005 is 8.0.50727.867 (vsvista.050727-8600) SP2. And that is my problem.
When I ran the application in debug mode (F5) on Windows Vista, a windows appeared whenever there was an error, like below:
Now, on Windows 7, the application just shows a exception message in the Immediate Windows, don't showing any error window, continuing the application execution, as below:

I have an application that works fine on Windows XP. However I have taken the same application and made some modifications to it to run on vista the app loads fine etc.
the problem stems from trying to change a service in the registry under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESystemCurrentControlSetServicesDiagnostic Service Host
Start = 4 instead of 3 (which is what it is currently set to)
when the program tries to change it I get a dialog box with the information below. How can I makes the changes to the registry without getting these kinds of errors. I tried to get the Framework configuration tool but it talks about XP and Windows 2000 for VB.Net 2005 so I am not sure what to do... I should mention I have only been programming for a month...
Error details:
"Application attempted to perform an operation not allowed by the security policy. To grant this application the reuired permission contact your system administrator or use the Microsoft .NET Framework configuration tool. [code]...
