Is it possible that the installer isn't succesfully overwriting some of the javascript files? I get javascript errors similar/identical to those Sarah lists every time I upgrade UNLESS I do the following: 1) close the toolbar 2) reboot 3) install the upgrade
I'm not sure if it's possible, but perhaps the installer should check if the toolbar is running, unload the toolbar, add itself to the "Runonce" registry key, and then ask the user to reboot. I know the runonce thing is a simple matter, but I don't think the installer could close the toolbar. Perhaps it could tell the user to close it, and won't complete the install until they do. -Dan -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Glenn Carr Sent: Wednesday, June 05, 2002 10:49 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [DQSD-Users] Errors with clean install of version 2.58 beta 8 Sarah, Here is something to try... - startup a command prompt and enter: regsvr32 "C:\Program Files\Quick Search Deskbar\dqsdt258.dll" - It should say something like "DllRegisterServer in dqsdt258.dll succeeded." - Then logout and login. > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Sarah > Sweeney > Sent: Wednesday, June 05, 2002 10:20 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: [DQSD-Users] Errors with clean install of version 2.58 beta 8 > > > Hello all, > > I have been using the deskbar for a few months now, and loving it more > and more each day.
