Rainmeter won't work on Windows 7 x86 build 7600 #143

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
Just installed Rainmeter (after reinstalling my PC and upgrading from XP to 
Windows 7) and I was very happy to get my stuff back. But it just won't work!
Installed successfully, I launch it (even in compatibility mode), the RM icon 
appears on the notification area, but when I click on it, nothing happens. No 
menu, no change, nothing.

What can be the problem?

This is an issue with your NOD32 ESET antivirus.  You need to add an exception 
for
the following folders:

Windows Vista & Win7: C:\Program Files\Rainmeter
Windows Vista & Win7: C:\Users\YourName\My Documents\Rainmeter
Windows Vista & Win7: C:\Users\YourName\Appdata\Roaming\Rainmeter

How can I do this?
I'm using Eset Smart Security v4.0, and I can't find any option for exceptions! 
(Only 
for firewall)

fonix,open up your ESET progra,. Hit the F5 key, this should open up ESET's 
setup
menu. Go to "Antivirus and antispyware", under there is an option called
"Exclusions". Click on that, and just add the folders mentioned above by 
"jmorley". 

Hope it solves ur prob, gl.
