1267: UAC and COM errors with Windows 7

Post by GuyScharf »

I am running Windows 7 RTM (Technet release) and having two problems with MM:

1) UAC alert every time I start MM.

2) Four System Log entries every time I start MM. This seems to be the same problem I saw reported in another thread about errors with Vista.

Is there any way for me to mark MM or MM parts in some way to resolve these issues?

Thanks.

Guy

Have no issues with My MM on Win 7.

Try to start Installation using Compatibility Troubleshooter and instead of suggested Win XP SP2 select Win XP SP3.

MediaMonkey have Valid Digital Signature and UAC should not complain. Have you tried to check and Import MM Signature to UAC?

Problem was resolved for me with 1275 and maybe 1274. Situation was confused by Windows 7 remembering compatibility settings from one install to another. I had set some setting with an earlier release to try to solve these problems and the settings didn't get reset even with a clean install to the same directory. Took a while for me to notice that.

My thanks to Rusty for his help in localizing the problem.
