Authorware 7 tutorial does not work

I get the error message says:

"The window named"mainwin"passed to HH_GET_WIN_TYPE has not been specified."

It is on a XP SP2 system.

Any ideas?
TIA

Which U.S.? ;-)

Have you tried to open the help file, and then selecting the item from the menu?
Search when Authorware is installed, is there an awusing.chm file? The
Constant HH_GET_WIN_TYPE is used by the api HtlmHelp. It's supposed to be
connect the Authorware application (with the name of "mainwin") to the
HTML application running separately. You can try reinstalling Authorware
on itself or uninstalling and reinstalling.

  • Troubleshooting Guide: Audio does not work after a Certain period of time

    Hi all

    Thank you for choosing the HP Forums!

    If your sound recently stopped working on Windows 8.x or Windows Server 2012 and you suspect an update of Windows is involved, then look like! This is the troubleshooting guide that will explain how to solve the problem!

    Explanation:

    Currently, there is a Windows update that may cause the sound on your computer to stop working. The update is KB2962407, and it is now an "Important" update This means that it will be installed by Windows Update unless hide you it.

    This thread also covers generic sound troubleshooting which can solve the problems of "no sound".

    Before the update itself, since an update of Windows cannot be the culprit, there are a few troubleshooting can be done.

    A round of troubleshooting:

    1. run the Audio Troubleshooting in Windows 8 may solve the problem. It does not contain the possibility of eliminating any parameter that affects sound. Here are some steps on how to perform this troubleshooting:

    (a) hold down the key "Windows" and "R" and type "Troubleshooting" and then press ENTER.

    (b) a window will open. On the left, click on "Show all", then "Audio playback".

    (c) click on 'Advanced' and run it as an administrator. Then click on 'Next' to complete the process.

    2 try to create a new user account. The changes forced by the update that is likely to affect only a single user. This HP document shows you how to create a new user in the section "creating a new account in Windows 8": users and connections (Windows 8) account management

    3. try a pair of headphones or external speakers. This is set by the whole issue if the sound does not work via an output of second or third device.

    4. an alternative is to uninstall the driver manually and then force to be installed again:

    (a) open the Device Manager and go to the section "audio, video controller and game."

    (b) make a right click on your audio driver and select "Uninstall".

    (c) restart the computer. This will force the material to write a new driver at startup.

    5. Finally, to ensure that the remaining steps that you have not tried this document are tempted: no sound from speakers (Windows 8)

    New inclusions:

    Deactivating and activating the audio driver has been tested with success results enough for me to post here. Here are the instructions to do this:

    (a) open the Device Manager and go to the section "audio, video controller and game."

    (b) make a right click on your audio driver and select "disable."

    (c) wait a minute, then right-click on it and select 'enable '.

    Also, the restoration of the system is also a valid troubleshooting step. This will return the computer to a point before the update or an external source of the issue has occurred. Here is a document on how to perform a system restore: System Restore

    If you want something strong, an update of Windows completely refreshes Windows 8, without affecting the files: refresh your PC to solve problems (Windows 8)

    Also, this is a sound of Windows troubleshooting tutorial. Just out of curiosity, I've recreated the problem on a Windows 8 and went through this tutorial. He has been able to solve the problem: no sound in Windows

    *Everything in italics is currently untested, but will be tested as soon as possible. I believe that these steps will help:

    In the search bar, type "services.msc" and press ENTER.

    Hold down the 'Windows' and 'R '. Type "services.msc" and press ENTER. Look for the following services:

    -Audio service

    -Windows audio

    -Windows Audio endpoint Builder

    I want you right click on each of these services and select "Stop". When they all stopped, right-click on each other again and select 'start '. So, make sure that the status of each service is "started" and their startup type is "Automatic".

    Troubleshooting of the update:

    At this point, unless you want to reinstall the operating system, the only other option is to tackle the update, KB2962407. Please note that the following troubleshooting is ONLY a workaround, for now and should be done only if the computer has installed this update.

    First of all, you can try the hotfix package content in this document from Microsoft, specifically at the KB2962407 address: RT of Windows, Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012 cumulative hotfix: June 2014

    If that doesn't help, then uninstall the update of Windows and then hide it, are the only way to eliminate the question if she caused by this update. Here is the procedure to uninstall the update:

    1. go in Control Panel, then click on "programs and features".

    2. click on "view installed updates". Look for the update with ID KB2962407.

    3. right click on the update and select "Uninstall". Restart the computer.

    Then, here is the procedure in order to hide the update:

    1. go in Control Panel, then click on "Windows Updates".

    2. click on ' Check for Updates '. When the process is complete, is expected to find important updates available. By clicking on the message will open a window where is the important updates.

    3. right click on the KB2962407 update and select "Hide update". This will prevent the installation update next time that Windows updates are installed.

    Conclusion:

    At the end of this guide, you will have the sound works again (assuming that the cause was the update of Windows, or the less focused on the software). Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns. Thank you!

    Hello Matheau,

    Thank you for the update on the question and sorry for a delayed response.

    Try it mentioned below for the methods to solve the problem and see if it helps you to solve the problem.

    Method 1

    Try to check that the service responsible for tone is running or not. You can try the steps below to start the service.

    1. Press the button window + R to open the Run dialog box.
    2. In the run box, type services.msc.
    3. Now, locate the Windows audio service in the list.
    4. Check if it is started, if not, right click on the service and click Start.
    5. Close the services window, and then restart your computer.
    6. After restarting your computer and then check the status of the sound.

    If the problem persists, you can try to update the audio drivers and check the status.

    Drivers are updated occasionally. Windows can update automatically, or you can install the drivers updated yourself. It is important for you to have confidence in the updated drivers that you install. Windows warns you if it detects a suspicious or dangerous driver, you should not install.

    You can check the link below to update the drivers and check the status.

    Update drivers: recommended links

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/update-drivers-recommended-links#update-drivers-recommended-links=Windows-7

    Method 3

    If the problem persists you can view the tutorial below which can help you identify and fix common sound problems in Windows, including no sound from your speakers or headphones. This tutorial does not cover sound problems related to specific programs. Sound problems can be caused by cables that are not connected properly, damaged drivers, incompatible drivers, sound settings, missing updates and problems with your sound card.

    No sound in Windows

    Hope it would help. If problem persists always post back with the current state of your computer and the result of the proposed suggestion, we will be happy to help you.

    Kind regards
