GrandMasterFlash Posted June 2, 2004 Share Posted June 2, 2004 A better system for making Windows Server accept your panel editor:1. Download the Application Compatibility Toolkit from Microsoft. Its a great tool and you'll need it later anyway. 2. Install the ACT. 3. Open Compatibility Administrator. 4. Click Fix and use XPSP1VersionLie on the EXE. 5. Save your SDB file. 6. Register the SDB file. 7. Run the app, see if it works! Edit: Unless you used the registry to obtain the value. In the future, use GetVersionEx. The good thing about this is that it only makes a change for your app, and you don't have to go change the registry every time you use it. In the next minor release, please change it to SP1 and higher. This can be done using GetVersionEx. In VB.NET, use System.Enviroment.OSVersion. This is a great program! I'm definitely going to have some fun with the OEM, and I'll be able to remove my dad's OEM label. (two different machines) Thank you! this is what i am talkin about.. when i do it i get the error that i have posed in my last post...

John Veteran Posted June 2, 2004 Author Veteran Share Posted June 2, 2004 Yeah, I would be surprised if that works. Reason being is that I checked the registry value, and didn't use GetVersionEx. Oh well, my programming skills have matured and I won't do that again :rolleyes: Now all my programs use .NET and compatibility isn't a problem! :D Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/85776-start-panel-editor-11/page/3/#findComment-2203530 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Night.Hawk Posted July 11, 2004 Share Posted July 11, 2004 Nevermind. I haven't installed it yet, but see if you can put the shortcut to "devmgmt.msc". Or have you tried that? Edit: Windows 95/98/Me: Try "C:\WINDOWS\CONTROL.EXE Sysdm.cpl, System,1" Where C:\Windows\ is your install directory. http://www.annoyances.org/exec/show/article01-420 Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/85776-start-panel-editor-11/page/3/#findComment-2465081 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Night.Hawk Posted July 11, 2004 Share Posted July 11, 2004 sorry for the triple post. If just typing in devmgmt.msc on Windows XP doesn't work, try "C:\WINDOWS\system32\devmgmt.msc" which should be a direct link. ;) Keyword. Should.

Phantom Helix Posted August 18, 2004 Share Posted August 18, 2004 The OEM icon link does work under SP2 the Internet link however does not change the functionality of the link nor the idon but it will change the tooltip i didnt try the H&S Run or Search icons because it apears to me that the default setting info is hard coded into the app and not read from current registry (or wherever the settings are stored) either that or the settings that really matter are not the ones it changes because i have netscape as default web browser but the defaults in the app say its all setup for internet explorer. so if you want one extra button on your start panel for any thing you choose v1.1 of this app will do the job properly for the OEM link under SP2. but not for any others Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/85776-start-panel-editor-11/page/3/#findComment-584382750 Share on other sites More sharing options...
