This exact issue is what finally made me drop using XPize a while back. Any chance you're using an old version of that?techtype wrote:Hey guys, would you mind testing for this anomaly:
Go to Control Panel, then Network Connections and then right click on your active network connection and choose "Status".
Did Status come up? It doesn’t for me. Nothing happens either in vmware or on real machines.
It does work from other places like the Start Menu, then Connect To, then Show All Connections or from the tray icon.
No, I'm very conservative. I only use packs from here and not many of those. But, you made me think -- I am using a few of the removal packs (not IE of course). I'll bet it's an unintended effect of one of those.RogueSpear wrote:This exact issue is what finally made me drop using XPize a while back.

Edit: I'm running some tests without the removal packs (although none are clearly related).
Edit2: It's not any of the removal packs that I use.
OK, after going through everything, it's a very unlikely registry tweak:
Set it back to zero (reboot) and it works again. Whew, that was a long process of elimination.
Edit: A full reboot is not needed, just close out of control panel and network connections, then go back in.
Code: Select all
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced]
"SeparateProcess"=dword:00000001

It should be released fairly shortly after patch Tuesday, since my last final is that Tuesday afternoon.

I don't include beta software. Flash 9 is still beta.

MSFN omitted the word "Beta" @ http://msfn.org/comments.php?shownews=17391 , maybe that's where the confusion came from.
