Setup Project Builds On Vista, Not XP - Interop Dependencies Manually Excluded?
Aug 21, 2007I have a setup project in my solution. There are interop dependencies on msADOX and oledb32. On my Vista build machine these dependencies don't show up in the "Detected Dependencies" list (only the two interop assemblies), and my solution builds just fine.
On the production build machine (XP), the build fails with two errors: ERROR: 'oledb32.dll' should be excluded because its source file 'C:Program FilesCommon Filessystemole dboledb32.dll' is under Windows System File Protection.

Programmatically Modifying A File On Windows Server 2008
Nov 23, 2009I have written a VB.NET 2008 application, incorporating Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel, that modifies an existing Excel 2007 spreadsheet. It works perfectly on my WinXP development computer.When I upload the app to a Microsoft Web Server 2008, it opens the file and reads from the file, but when the app tries to save the file, it throws this exception:"System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x800A03EC): 'july2009.xlsx' is read-only. To save a copy, click OK, then give the workbook a new name in the Save As dialog box."The file is NOT read-only, nor is it opened by any other user or app.The app and the Excel file both reside on the D: (data-only) drive.My first instinct was to look at file permissions. When nothing else worked, I literally created a temporary Group, added EVERY user and security entity to it and granted the group full control of the entire D: drive. No luck.
Then I tried manually elevating the permission by running my app as administrator. No luck.Finally, I copied the file to my XP development computer and ran the app there. Of course it worked perfectly.Can anyone please tell me how to give my program permission to edit a file on Server 2008?

View 2 RepliesVS 2005 Piracy Protection Mechanism And Windows Vista Or Windows 7
Apr 19, 2010i 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.

Debugging Difference Between Windows Vista And Windows 7

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:

Sep 17, 2009I 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
