Title: Why won't they work?
Post by: Mighty Moose on August 10, 2010, 10:35:24 am
I'm having problems running certain programs on my computer, such as ti-coder and latenite and such.  The most common error seems to be "The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000135). click ok to terminate application".  This is very confuzzling and frustrating!

Can someone help me out?

Install the .net framework, I believe, is your solution.

You just made my day, King Graphmastur!
For that, I give you a box of cookies.

Nice of you, you give him a box of cookie but you eat its entire content :(

It's all good. I don't need to eat them anyway. ;-)

sorry...I was describing how good they taste(d).
Here's another one.

Edit: I have another problem.  I tried using Wabbitcode and it somehow turned the icons of all my .8xp and .8xk files into wabbits (no joke).  How can I fix this (I'm not on an admin account)?

Err, thats a tough one, I still need to find a way to undo my stupidity of setting the .8xp files to open with windows explorer, and using the regestry doesnt work >.>

I accidentally did that, too.

Well, there are two ways. One is to right click on each file type, and click properties, and then, change the application. If that doesn't work, please post.

@Qazz same thing should work.

Nope, the check box is greyed out

Can you do a screenshot?

Here's how it looks for me:

Yep, same here, DAMN WINDOWS EXPLORER >:(
Title: Re: Why won't they work?
Post by: Mighty Moose on August 10, 2010, 05:58:30 pm
I use XP.
I'm sorry if this sounds really n00bish, but I don't know how to take a screenshot (of my computer, that is :P).
Would there, by chance, be a way to change them back using Tools -> Folder Options... -> File Types?
@Graphmastur: Yeah, it doesn't work the way you said on XP either.

Print Screen key. It should in the upper-right corner of your keyboard

try this (http://www.askvg.com/how-to-enable-disable-always-use-the-selected-program-to-open-this-kind-of-file-option-in-open-with-dialog-box/). I cannot verify if it'll work or not.

Okay. Here are three
edit: hang on - I'll post in a minute
edit2:@graphmastur: idk if that is the right method

well, read the bonus tip:
Quote
BONUS TIP: This tutorial can also be used in reverse condition. e.g. if this checkbox is already disabled in your Windows and you want to enable it, then you can remove the %2 mentioned in Method A or set value of DWORD value to 0 as mentioned in Method B.

Post by: FinaleTI on August 10, 2010, 06:54:17 pm
Yeah! Thank you! I tried the first one and it worked! All you have to do is add a %0 after the %1 at the end, and it works!
Title: Re: Why won't they work?
Post by: Mighty Moose on August 10, 2010, 07:08:24 pm
Wait - what is regedit?
btw, here are the screenshots.
Title: Re: Why won't they work?
Post by: jnesselr on August 10, 2010, 07:11:18 pm
go to Start>Run>type "regedit">enter. Use the bar on the left to navigate. I would create a restore point for your system first (google if you don't know how).  Then, navigate the folders, and edit it appropriately according to the article I posted, but backwards. eg, FinaleTI got it to work by changing %2 to %0.
Title: Re: Why won't they work?
Post by: qazz42 on August 10, 2010, 10:06:28 pm
So, anyone know what the problem is?
Title: Re: Why won't they work?
Post by: jnesselr on August 10, 2010, 10:30:41 pm
okay, open regedit and go to:
Code: [Select]
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Unknown\shell\openas\command
change the value of the Default key to this:
Code: [Select]
%SystemRoot%\system32\rundll32.exe %SystemRoot%\system32\shell32.dll,OpenAs_RunDLL %1 %0
close regedit, and then do the open width dialog box. should work.

graphmast, O_o

YAAAAA!

Nice, I should try that, because I accidentally setup some calc files to open with other files once and now I can no longer right click/send to ti device with them, and I never figured out how to revert those changes...
Title: Re: Why won't they work?
Post by: jnesselr on August 10, 2010, 11:00:23 pm
Awww... But yeah. It's a pain. I recently uninstalled tilp, and had to remove all the file references by hand in regedit.
Title: Re: Why won't they work?
Post by: Mighty Moose on August 11, 2010, 01:43:37 pm
Sorry...didn't work.  I tried both methods.  The icons are correct on the admin account, but not on my account (non-admin).  Any other suggestions?
Title: Re: Why won't they work?
Post by: qazz42 on August 11, 2010, 02:15:58 pm
no, you have to remove the %0 at the end, other wise it doesnt work
Title: Re: Why won't they work?
Post by: Mighty Moose on August 12, 2010, 01:34:08 pm
What about on a flash drive?  Is there a way to fix on that?
btw, I know you can change program icons through tools->folder options...->file types, but all the buttons are greyed out for me.

*BUMP*

Howdy, folks.  I decided to sit on this for a month to ease my frustration (jk).  No, I've just been really busy :P.
So, after a month hiatus...
Good news: Graphmastur's fix worked (well, sort of).  Kudos to you, Graphmastur.
Bad news: Now I have no program or app icon whatsoever.

Would reinstalling TI-Connect do anything?  Or is there a way I can fix the icons directly?
I am open to any/all ideas/suggestions.
Thx.

(EDIT: btw, my posting will probably be very sporadic over the next few months)

Maybe reinstalling might work, but I'M not sure. I don't know how to directly fix icons.

Welcome back, though!
