Hi,

I tried to install my WPI-Project on a Vista machine. The Software will be installed correctly, but the programentries will not work correctly. Why that?

ex.:

....
{MAKEDIR} "%AllUsersProfile%\Startmenü\Programme\Office"
{FILEMOVE} "%AllUsersProfile%\Startmenü\Programme\Microsoft Office" "%AllUsersProfile%\Startmenü\Programme\Office\"

....
{MAKEDIR} "%AllUsersProfile%\Startmenü\Programme\System"
{FILEMOVE} "%AllUserSProfile%\Startmenü\Programme\TuneUp Utilities 2009" "%AllUsersProfile%\Startmenü\Programme\System\"

Under XP it works fine, but under Vista Makedir and Filemove without function (and no error report in WPI)

Regards
Jackson

It is probably related to the permissions and the UAC...Was UAC turned completely off? If so, then not sure why you couldn't modify the entries...look at the permissions. I know in Win7, even the registry permissions are a lot tighter.

Also, be sure to "run as administrator" when to run the WPI.hta file...Or use the autorun executable that is on the sticky post, and run it as administrator...
