WaitZar cannot add System Tray icon (Vista HP, SP1) #49

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
#From Kyaw Tun:
"Vista SP1 does't not allow to put on system tray without some right. Run
as admin solves this problem."

I haven't observed this, but I have to check... maybe the user account is
heavily restricted? If so, we can patch it.

The problem is observed with Original Vista 32-bit SP1 Home Premium Edition in 
DELL 
Studio laptop.

I have two upgraded Vista Ultimate SP1, without problem.

I think upgraded and original SP1 might be different.

I will install Vista HP when I get the chance, but it might take a while. By 
the way,
I have updated the nightly to output an error code:

http://waitzar.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/nightly/WaitZar.exe

(Make sure you right-click, and "Save As", otherwise it might not download 
correctly).

What error code do you get in the message box?

Merged in bug 57:

>Infrequently, Can't switch icon error dialog (as attached) appear repeatly 
whenever Ctrl+Shift is pressed in attempt to switch language. In that 
suituation, WaitZar application was quit and disappear from tray bar as 
well. However the process is running, as it shown in the Task Manager's 
process list.

>1.6. Was the same experience with 1.5.

Making this high priority. Thanks for the error code; I'll have a look at it.

I think I know how to fix this.

Please run the attached (debug) version of WaitZar; it will do some tests and 
show
you a message box. Send me a screen capture of that box.

However it appears on other computers, after it clashes between Ctrl+Shift 
(Waitzar) 
and Shift+Ctrl (other application).

Ok, try this one. It should start WaitZar as an elevated program, and you 
should not
have any issues with Icons.

It loads properly.

I've added the config option: "alwayselevate" 
This option will detect Vista and always ask the user to elevate his program 
(run as
administrator).
It will be off by default, since most Vista users do not need it.

This will be in version 1.7; I've updated the nightly.
