VISTA: XV Location Not Stored In Registry
SYMPTOMS
Even after installing/running the XV application, the location is not saved in
the registry, so installing further updates/extensions will always require specifying
the XV location.
RESOLUTION
- Run regedit, and navigate to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
\ SOFTWARE \
- Inside there, create a Key with the name Apteryx.
- Inside Apteryx, create a Key with the name ApplicationLocations.
- Inside ApplicationLocations, create a String with the
name XVa3 and the value of the software location, such as: C:\Program
Files\Apteryx\Apteryx Imaging\
OR
- Copy the following lines into a blank text document and save it with the
extension .REG
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Apteryx\ApplicationLocations]
"XVa3"="C:\\Program
Files\\Apteryx\\Apteryx Imaging\\"
- Execute the reg file and
click Yes when it asks to add
the content to the registry.
