Beta Version Issues

[signals]

My money is on a windows update.

Me too. I'm absolutely stumped by what is going on.

Well that's it for me, short of reformatting and installing your OS I don't have any other ideas. Maybe MalWare bytes scan.

No it will not run that way either.

I am actually trying to find the answer or get help on Windows/Microsoft help dept. so we shall see.....not sure what my options are

If you have 8.0.8.2 installed just browse over to the directory in ProgramFiles and double click DVDFab in the file list and see if it will run that way.

[kshduckman1170]

"C:\Program Files\DVDFab 8\DVDFab.exe"

Thats it...it does have a space. I was typing it in so I missed the space before. Above is a copy and paste of what it is. I was more concerned by the code 740 and the part that says requested operation requires elevation

The run as admin is is and has always been checked

[GregiBoy]

Actually, another space also...

C:\Program Files\DVDFab 8\Dvdfab.exe

This doesn't look right "c:\ProgramFiles\DVDFAB8\Dvdfab.exe" in your error message. Check the properties of your desktp icon, the directory in program files should have a space in it: C:\ProgramFiles\DVDFab 8\Dvdfab.exe

Hi kshduckman1170
Can you also right click the DVD Fab icon and click run as administrator???
Also when right clicking Fab and then properties, do you also have an Advanced button to run Fab as administrator by putting a check in the box.

create process failed: code 740
The requested operation requires elevation

So that is something new...still doesn;t work but maybe that tells you something else.

I looked around a bit, but no road you haven't been down already...
mostly stuff like install as admin, requires admin rights, av software, yada, yada, yada.

I have tested on 5 machines here with no probs. OS's range from XP SP3 to Win 7 Ultimate X64 but all > "Professional".

Haha, my primary rig is Win7 Pro 64-bit...never a problem with Fab since my build back in Oct. '09
It's also ok on my old, reliable XP Pro 32-bit rig and my dauughter's Win7 Premium Home 64-bit lappie.

Yup, time for the guys and gals in Beijing to get their hands dirty...

[kshduckman1170]

Ok more info...just trying to give as much info as I can. It still is not working.

I did a full system clean of all things on my computer, even more then a simple registry clean.

Once again tried 8082...actually started with beta 8080 but as usual it appears to download and yet again it will not open but here is the new thing...I received this message.

Unable to execute file
c:\ProgramFiles\DVDFAB8\Dvdfab.exe

create process failed: code 740
The requested operation requires elevation

So that is something new...still doesn;t work but maybe that tells you something else.

Anyway as usual I am back at 8073

I am sure that the devs will have to roll up their sleeves on this one!!!

I suspect a rights/privileges problem in some brain-dead versions of Windoze and am trying to find something common.

[regnad kcin]

What is the EXACT version of Windoze that you are using????

Ultimate 64 bit, Professional 64 Bit, etc, etc, etc???

You're right, folks need to be specific when posting.
However, this user is obviously not a noob and has attempted to answer everything asked of him/her...for 7 pages now.

Sorry, but I'm afraid Fengtao & team are going to have to roll up their sleeves on this one.
As of this post, there are entirely too many users posting issues when attempting to install recent Fab versions.
Thankfully, I'm not one of them.

I know Fengtao to be a man of integrity and with him at the helm, I have no doubt this will be resolved.

I respectfully urge users having trouble to pm or email him.

Just my 2 cents

[GregiBoy]

I cannot cornfirm this but I have a feeling that it is somehow related to rights/privileges in the "Home" version of Windoze.

I have tested it on 5 machines available to me ranging from XP SP3 thru to Win7 Ultimate X64 with absolutely no problems.

I have no further suggestions until the developers chime in.

Sorry Buddy !!!

Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit..service pack 1.
