Cannot get handle to application? #20

Hi there, I'm sorry to be "that guy" but I've followed all your directions carefully and still can't get the app to hook successfully. I installed it to C:\WinCenterTitle, and made the owner of the folder the "Administrators" account and gave full permissions to "Users". Nevertheless, executing the exe in an admin Command Prompt yields the following: Version of Win10: 19042.1586

WinCenterTitle

  1. Hook Library Path: C:\WinCenterTitle\WinCenterTitleLibrary.dll
  2. Hook Library Entry Point: 0x1e20
  3. LoadLibraryW address: -1349779744
  4. FreeLibrary address: -1349793840
  5. ERROR: Cannot get handle to application.

Install WSudo via scoop first scoop install wsudo Then open up Command Prompt in C:\WinCenterTitle or where ever you have WinCenterTitle on your computer Then type wsudo WinCenterTitle.exe in CMD and click Yes if a UAC prompt comes up. And it should be working fine

I couldn't figure it out either... I really would love to see this feature added to the author's fantastic ExplorerPatcher tool
