ManageIE and MS Vista

[lscritch2]

I tried running "regsvr32 ManageIE.dll" but got the following error:

The module "ManageIE.dll" was loaded but the call to DllRegisterServer failed with error code 0x80070005.

This error code seems to pertain to having insufficient permissions to change the registry. I am running as administrator, however.

I tried "merge[ing] the 'ManageIE.reg' file into your Windows Registry by double clicking on it" as Scott recommended in a thread entitled "manageIE and setpwb" from Nov. 2006. (I'd post a link to the thread but the forum software won't allow it, since this is my first post under this ID.)

...and changing the value of OpenPWBToURL to 1, but that did not work.

How can I make PWB run instead of IE on Vista?

We are currently checking on the problem.

Here are the steps to install ManageIE on Windows Vista by using the enclosed install batch file.

1. Edit the batch file that installs ManageIE (install.bat) by Right clicking the file and choosing "Edit".
2. Change the commandline to include the full path to the ManageIE.dll file.

Code: Select all

regsvr32 C:\PWB\ManageIE.dll

3. Save the file.
4. Right click the batch file (install.bat) and choose "Run as administrator".

This will allow the batch file to run as the administrator which runs REGSRV32 to import the DLL into the registry.

"Run as administrator" huh?

It worked. Thanks!
