I have a copy of WPI sitting on my disk.
I have VMware workstation 6.0.4 running, so that I can start out with a fresh copy of XP without any apps.
In VMware, I host the host-guest file system to access a folder on my host disk.
In the VM, you connect to that like this:
\\.host\Shared Folders\
When I use this way to browse to my WPI folder the actual path used is this:
\\.host\Shared Folders\D\Software\WPI
When I then open WPI.hta I get this errors:
'Windows' theme does not exist. Switching to Windows, the default theme.
I click OK. Same error again. I click OK.
The 'Windows' theme could not be loaded. Please re-install the theme.
I click OK. WPI quits.
However!
If I map the network drive to let's say Z: and then access WPI:
Z:\D\Software\WPI
then everything works like a charm.
It looks like WPI chokes on the UNC path with a dot in it?
Have just tried it out via Remote Desktop mapped folder (i.e. \\tsclient\D\wpi ), and that also fails with the same error.
Thanks!!!
