Hi All
We are testing our Apps in Vista but I must admit to having some
difficulties with the OS. We use Crystal reports which we understadn is
a problem on Vista.
So I have been testing our runtime install (the full deployment is a
guaranteed no go). It was working!. However the app involved showed
with a shield (which apparently indicates running in admin mode), even
though the properties for the app were set to no compatability fixes and
non admin. So I rebuilt the app with a Vista manifest setting the
rights to minimum (user). This removed the shield but broke Crystal.
So I removed the manifest but the shield has not returned and even if I
force the app to run in admin mode, crystal still fails.
I think the issue is the app is no longer 'virtualized'. I have no idea
how to turn this setting back on. Does anyone have any ideas, the MS
site tells me all about virtualization and that adding a security
manifest will turn it off (thats what I did), but removing the manifest
has not restored it.
Arrggghh !
