FlashFolder / Discussion / Open Discussion: FlashFolder Nor Being Displayed

Nobody/Anonymous - 2007-11-12

Have just installed FlashFolder and it is not being displayed in any application, including MS Office 2003.

I have XP SP2 and the service is running.

Any ideas

  Please reboot your computer.
  
  Although I never experienced this "bug" myself on a clean install of FlashFolder, some time ago there was another user who reported this. After a restart of Windows, everything went smooth for him.

  In this situation FlashFolder is not displayed:
  Activate Open-Dialog in Word 2003 - then right-click on a shortcut-doc.-file and chose "Properties" - then choose "another symbol" – in the next dialog click on "browse": on the following dialog "another symbol" there FlashFolder does not appear!!

  Win XP SP2 pro
  Same problem. My Win is patched to get another theme. Is this a reason possible for this problem ?

  This cannot be a reason for the problem since my XP is patched to enable non-MS-themes too.

  I found i way to solve this. It's very simple. Flashfolder is displayed if you restart the service. So, just make a .bat file with "sc stop flashfolder" and "sc start flasfolder" lines, and make it to start with windows. That solves the problem.

  Thanks for posting this workaround.
  
  Seems like FlashFolder gets loaded too early after Windows boots or depends on some stuff that gets loaded only after FlashFolder on some configurations.
  If I cannot reproduce the problem it might be a workaround to delay the service initialization.

  Any idea how to delay the service?
  There is the dependency key to add in the registry, I put some windows service there but with no luck.
  
  Any Idea, I did a bat file to restart, I can put it in autostart but it is better to have a service working well.

    I'm currently working on this issue. The idea is that the FlashFolder service waits until a user actually logs on before initialising the "open/save dialog" hook in the users session.
    This should also allow FlashFolder to cooperate with "Fast User Switching" under XP and above.

  I have uploaded a test version of FlashFolder with a possible solution to the autostart problem.
  Please see this thread:

  Thanks!

I am experiencing same problem on Windows XP SP3. However, I found the solution! Problem is described in a bug here.

Problem is that FlashFolder tries to use some API, which is provided by Terminal Service service, which is not started yet. By setting FlashFolder service as dependent on Terminal Service, I solved the problem.

Type this into command line to set FlashFolder as dependent on Terminal Service service:

sc config FlashFolder depend= TermService
