Program fails to run under Remote Desktop Sessions


Recommended Posts

Well for the life of me I can not see why you would want to run this software - there are all kinds of alternate docks and menu type programs if you don't like the start menu, etc.

But I was able to duplicate your problem - it runs on win7 64bit, and works using RDP as well.

And it works on xp if your using the console - but if you rdp in yup get a ntdll.dll error.

I grabbed that analyser - attached is the log file.

tw32.exe.summary.txtFetching info...

But again -- I just don't see the point in this software.. But sure it was pretty kewl for win 3.1 ;)

http://www.launchy.net/ is one example of different methods of launching programs, there loads of them out there.

Is there Amarok for Windows?

Anyways, I am used to tabworks and it's twf format... I like the fact that all my "books" are stored in files I can easily backup, etc...

Can anyone make sense of that log? Why would it list Internet Explorer and Windows Media player in there? Where you running them at the time?

Well for sure was not running media player, and no for IE as well.

as to amarok - there is a windows version, atleast a test version

But isn't that a music player - not really a replacement for your start menu, etc.??

As to be used to it - so? IMHO it looks like CRAP! And is way more cluttered looking than the start menu, etc. With 7, i don't really even use the start menu any more just type in the first few letters of what Im looking for a search - and there you go.

Here you go this jetstart looks a lot nicer that that 3.1 software - and looks to have way more features as well.. And the tabs for your different types of applications are not sideways in EYE BLEEDING colors either ;)

There a loads of these things out there - I can find it hard to believe that you can not find something you like that was actually coded in the last 10 years, ie 2k+

OK I figured out it works in 256 Color in an RDP Session. For home that's fine for me, but my I use my VM at school for everyday tasks and would like to have more than 256 Colors and my desktop on this VM is really crowded, it would be nice to remove some of these program icons...

    • WhatsApp document scanning gets closer to launch as more beta testers get access by Paul Hill Meta looks as though it’s getting closer to releasing WhatsApp’s native document scanner on Android because more people are now reporting they have access in the beta. This will give users a privacy-friendly way to snap photos of documents and automatically convert them to PDF ready for sharing. According to WABetaInfo, the feature comes with two modes: manual and automatic. The manual capture gives users more control over the process allowing them to adjust positioning and lighting to get the best quality scan. Automatic mode on the other hand automatically detects the edge of your document on its own and snaps the image without too much user input, making it faster and easier. Once the picture is taken, WhatsApp automatically converts it to a PDF file so that it can be shared and opened easily by the recipient. The file can be sent within private chats or group conversations. The entire scanning and conversion process takes place locally on your device, using Android’s built-in API for snapping documents. The document itself is also only stored locally until you decide to send it. Just like other WhatsApp messages, these scans are secured with end-to-end encryption when you send them to recipients. The only privacy risk is the user sending the PDF to the wrong person. The new feature was first noticed for Android a few weeks ago and with the latest beta it’s rolling out to more people. Once Meta has tested it across a wide array of devices, we will likely see it land for people on the stable version of WhatsApp. In recent weeks, we have also seen that Meta is testing new chat color themes in the beta releases. That feature doesn’t seem to have filtered down to the stable version yet, so be on the lookout for that too if that’s of interest to you.
    • Silly, illinformed comment but thanks for playing anyway. I mean, are you actually comparing a default browser on well over a billion devices with Firefox?
    • Of course you haven't. Microsoft evangelical James is making *hit up.
    • The way time and things are going, Mozilla might oneday surprise everybody by giving up Firefox estimating "no future growth potential" and moving it to the security and maintenance updates only mode. We've seen something like that before ... and Mozilla still doing it.
