The update is failing installation. Every time I've had something like that happen, I've ended up rebuilding the machine.
Check the event log for any errors.

I checked the event log, and you are right. The update is failing to install,
but the update is for an application I never use anyway, so I'm removing it now.
Thanks.

Lucky me. The updates I've had crash on me were always to Windows, not an application like Office.

Hello everybody,
Here is my problem :
I have a module which is loaded by WIA serivice(which in turn runs under Svchost.exe),
and the module adds a port(for example: 9705:TCP) to firewall's exceptio list.
It uses INetFwOpenPorts::Add() method for the purpose.
But the method INetFwOpenPorts::Add() fails with error E_ACCESSDENIED.
When I try to do so by loading my module in a normal NT service it successfully does that.
I am wandering is there any problem of Fireweall exception list and Svchost.exe.
Please help me.
FYI: I am using Windows Vista OS.
Thanks in advance.

The laptop is DELL and with WINXPSP3 OS.
Any help ??

Start with updating the driver for the Network card.
Check that you're not having more than one software firewall.
Check for virus.

You can check the Cmos setup and make sure the Nic is enable and also check what setting options you have. You can get to the setup by pressing the F2 or F10 one of thoes function keys.

Hi all,
I have two Windows Small Business Server 2003 R2 software packages, but only one is in use.
Is it possible to permanently assign the CAL from the one Windows Small Business Server 2003 R2 package that is not currently being used to the one that is, increasing the existing CAL.
Many thanks in advance

Hi guys,
Can anyone please tell me a way (may be a registry entry) that I can disable/re-enable the "Update Driver" button in Device manager in Windows XP.
Thanks...

I've created a file extension for my application that no one seems to use. (I know, "Yeah, right!"  )
Anyway, I'd like to register the file extension with windows to display a human-friendly description.
Let's say, I chose 'doc' as my file extension.
Instead of 'doc File', I want windows to Display 'Word Document'.
I'm actually looking for a script that I could use during the install process. How would I go about doing that?
thanks again, CPC!

Hi,
I have a application that we installing on user's m/c in Admin credentials. But whenever user logs in as a normal user (without Admin credentials) we are trying to update the patch, which will replace some components (exe,dll) in "Program Files" directory. Since user doesn't have Admin credentials he will not be able to do so.
I woould like to know is there any way by which normal user will be able to update these patches, which will not require any Admin credentails.
Thanks

Hi, I just read an article from http://support.microsoft.com/kb/299648[^] about the date and time stamp in Windows.
From here I would like to have a question, if I copy the file to my flash drive. Is it possible for me to check the previous create date before this file is copy? (Mean the create date on my computer or the create date from the other computer if the file is copy from the other source).
Thank in advance!!!

How to play an Animation and make video render before logon through credential provider ?(Vista)
It seams VMR9 cannot work fine before logon.
(development of facial recognition credential)
|

You need to do research into writing your own "Credential Provider[^]" for Vista. This concept replaced the older GINA found in previous versions of Windows. And no, you can't use C# or VB.NET to do this. You're in stuck in the relm of C++.

Hi
I am trying to deploy a digital certificate (a test. pfx and a .cer) to users in a GPO. I have read that you can deploy the certificates by following the ensuing link in the GPO management view:
Computer Configuration\Windows Settings\Security Settings\Public Key Policies\Trusted Publishers.
Yet I cant seem to find the above - mentioned folder structure. Only the Trusted Root Certification Authorities folder is visible.
Any suggestions on how to deploy certificates to a group of users in a domain without using the certmgr console?
Thanks

Hi,
I've got a new HP machine and they've hidden some of their stuff in some sort of secret folder that I can only access when I have the full name of one of the files inside it and then only through the Explorer's Advanced search with the "include non-indexed, hidden,and system files" checked. I've been through all the usual folder options and applied a hack of the registry SHOWALL key. Has anybody seen anything like this and know how to list out the full folder?
Thanks,
Will

Hi Luc,
It's nothing exciting, just a few XML files for extending the TouchSmart environment with your own apps. It's in the Program Files\Hewlett-Packard\. . .\SmartCenter 2.0 folder and the folder is called UpdateAppSettings. It seems like HP either wants to open up the environment but aren't quite ready or they're pretending to but won't actually commit to it. It's pretty half-baked at this point. For instance, there is a utility so you can "Register" your application but there is no "Unregister" option.
I did find that once I opened one of the files from within VS 2008, I was able to see the rest of the files the next time I went into the File OpenFile Dialog.
I'm still curious about how they might have done that.
Searching for a solution, I saw one item where they talked about adding a Class Id extention, .{26EE0668-A00A-44D7-9371-BEB064C98683}, to the folder name but that didn't seem to work on one of my other Vista machines so I don't think that's it:
