    app on XP

    hi

    i have done a small app which works like win explorer with lots os api... now i tried deploying it on xp... i have packed it by using P & D. now when i run the app i get some errors

    i have one more pc which is XP and VB6 is loaded there it works fine....

    now what can be the problem....

    i got a tool application verifier 2.28 which check the app.
    when i run the app it gives me a report

    HKEY_CURRENT_CONFIG Registry Key.

    The application read from Current Configuration Registry Keys. It should not read this area of the registry directly for configuration information. Registry keys change with each version of Windows. To guarantee compatibility, use the correct API calls.


    The application wrote to a non-Current User Registry Key. Applications should store information to the Current User section of the registry, which allows each user to have their own saved preferences.


    | RegistryChecks 14 | 2 AcLayers.DLL 20871'Read from dangerous registry entry 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager'.

    Your best bet it to try the runtimes anyway especially if it is working on a machine with VB installed

    What i meant is SP5 is in the runtimes, dont install SP5 if VB isnt installed it wont work

    the link for runtimes

    Good Luck

    Some Files required may be out of date from the source machine or not passed.

    Have you installed the Runtimes i gave you a link to?? Ignore P&D it is not a great app anyway and does contain bugs

    P.s

    These runtimes go on the destination pc
