"Program compatibility assistant" halts open Soundbooth

When you open the Soundbooth splash screen appear normally for a few seconds of Soundbooth. Then a "Program Compatibility Wizard" covers the Soundbooth splash screen and warns against the "missing codec" and if I select the download which brings me to the www.totalcodec.com site that wants Larry me to install what is called the missing codecs. Notice that I am on XP and there is no "Program Compatibility Wizard" (only for Vista, Windows 7). Note wrong spelled "compatibility."

I ran a full scan with malwarebytes and McAfee and the two report I own of any virus or malware. I see no problem with other products of CS4 web premium.

I did a complete clean installation of Soundbooth CS4 which did not help.  Here you can see "Assistant to the program compatibility" covering start of Soundbooth and warning "missing codecs.  You can also see in the background malwarebytesthat I used to check for malware.

Any suggestions gratefully appreciated!

The wire to 407.selon html http://www.computing.net/answers/security/this-program-requires-a-missing-windows-codec/30 is originally by some kind of virus or Trojan.  According to the original author, the problem disappeared after scanning with StopZilla http://www.stopzilla.com/

  • Cannot turn off Program Compatibility Assistant

    I hope someone can provide me with a way to disable the program compatibility Wizard. I had this same problem in the Beta, but of course during the beta test I used Windows 7 Ultimate. First off I would like to start by pointing out that I do run with Windows 7 Home Premium.

    That said, I know that this means that the most common solution, using Local Group Policy Editor to disable the program compatibility Wizard won't work, as the Home Premium does not gpedit.msc.

    Now, this is the part confusing, at least to me. I found an alternative solution specifically designed to fill this gap. I was directed to the access to Servicesand localization Program Compatibility Assistant Service, stop the service and then turn it off (via the properties for this service). I did exactly that. He is arrested and the Startup Type is "off". I even rebooted.

    Now here's the part that confuses me... it always comes back. How can he do that when I have the service stopped? This is another aspect of the security of Windows 7 I am not aware of this must be disabled?

    As a note, when I tried to install the software in question, I chose "Run as Administrator", just in case, and who didn't yet have any advantage. If anyone knows what I have to do, including instructions on changing my recording, let me know. Thank you.

    Hi Mobius187,


    I'm afraid to say that in Windows 7 Home Edition Premium, it is not possible to disable this feature.
    The only way to turn it off is by using the Group Policy Editor.
     
     
    Hope that answers your question.

  • How can I turn off Compatibility Mode in the program compatibility Assistant? (Recommended to install Kodak EasyShare software)

    EasyShare Digital Camera (model C813) bought in 2008; Earlier software installation on laptop.  At some point of the plant to a standstill and recommended to disable Compatibility Mode because (I think because the software was older...?).  I couldn't find where to turn it off.  I'm not very tech - know.

    Thank you.

    I think the message compatibility mode refers to means of IE, not Windows.  Later versions of Internet Explorer have a compat mode that allows IE to run like an earlier version.  The goal is to access websites that have not been updated for more recent versions of Internet Explorer.  Click the link Internet explore in the banner at the top of this forum page and use the forum for your current version of Internet Explorer.

  • Program Compatibility Assistant popping up on each connection after installing windows 8

    install windows 8 on my laptop (HP Pavilion Notebook PC g6) but keep getting a popup saying I need to install the ATI Catalyst Control Center, I do a search and it says to contact ATI, but solutions at home? any suggestions?

    Hello

    Contacting ATI (AMD) would not help because you need a stamp certified HP to be able to run on your computer. My suggestion: check out the complete model (G6 is not a model) of your machine and go to the (x) HP to check. Many drivers have been downloaded in support of the sites for these days.

    I hope this helps.

  • Reference Dell 375 Bluetooth no longer works after update Windows 8, R296919, blocked by the Compatibility Assistant programs - how to fix

    Hardware: Dell laptop with adapter Bluetooth 375 Dell running Windows 8

    Problem: after Microsoft Windows 8 update, all Bluetooth devices stopped working.  Moreover, they could is more to be discovered to pair them up.  Device Manager showed all works very well.

    Failure of attempts to repair:
    -Uninstall all components of Bluetooth in the Device Manager and analysis of the material changes.
    -Uninstall Dell 375 in programs & features (WIDCOMM Bluetooth Software) in order to reinstall (R296919).  The installation was quickly blocked by the program compatibility Wizard.
    -With the Dell software uninstalled, I thought that perhaps that it was no longer necessary, and so Microsoft software would work.  Yet once, I uninstalled all Bluetooth components in the Device Manager and analysis of the material changes.  Still could not pair.
    -Check in Bluetooth services and services were running.

    What worked:
    -Run GPEdit and go to the compatibility of the components/Application Computer Configuration / Administrative Templates/Windows /.
    -Enable the following:
    Remove Program Compatibility Property Page
    Turn off Application compatibility engine
    Disable the program compatibility Wizard
    -Run services.msc and stop the process of Bluetooth
    -Extract the R296919 in a directory
    - on R296919.exe and select run as administrator
    -For me, the installation failed the first time.  Then I repeated it, and it was installed fine, but required reset, which I did.
    -At this point, I was able to pair Bluetooth devices again.
    -Open Device Manager and go to the Bluetooth Module Bluetooth/Dell Wireless 375.  and select Properties.  Click the power management tab, and uncheck "Allow the computer to turn off the device to save power" and press OK.  If you do not perform this step, you will have all kinds of problems with Bluetooth devices, including keyboards and mice.
    -Reverse changes in GPEdit to not configured.
    -Reboot

    How to avoid the problem:
    Microsoft has an updated driver that States it is for the adapter Bluetooth of Dell 375.  on the update and select Hide update.  Microsoft has had quite a few black Tuesday lately, and this update is just another example.

    From now on, I would say you can do an System File Checker [SFC] scan on the computer.

    Scan SFC enforcement procedure:

    1. click on the Start button

    2. on the Start Menu, click all programs followed by accessories

    3. in the menu accessories, right-click on command line option

    4. in the drop-down menu that appears, click the "Run as Administrator" option

    5. If you have the User Account Control (UAC) enabled, you will be asked permission before the opening of the command line. You simply press the button continue if you are the administrator or insert password etc.

    6. in the command prompt window, type: sfc/scannow then press enter

    7. a message is displayed to indicate that "the analysis of the system will start.

    8. be patient because the analysis may take some time

    9. If all the files need replace SFC will replace them. You may be asked to insert your Vista DVD for this process to continue

    10. If all goes although you should, after the analysis, see the following message "Windows resource protection not found any breach of integrity.

    11. once the scan is finished, close the command prompt window, restart the computer and check.

  • dialog box "Choose the program you want to open this file" is displayed when I start (after shutdown or restart) with my windows username listed in the file to open

    As I mentioned, the dialog box appears after every restart.  It occurs after I entered my credentials to logon and proceeded to windows.  It seems to be pretty late in the boot process that things like the chat programs and widgets are fully charged at the time wherever the dialog box is displayed.

    The dialog box appears to be the 'Open with' dialog box in Windows 7 standard.

    Specifically the dialogue reads as follows:

    Samhrutha,

    I solved the problem.

    I found that when creating a new user, no longer had the open with dialog box.

    I started the process of resolution of a corrupted user profile (which seems little more than creating a new and copy and paste a few old values), when I decided to try one last thing.

    I logged on my account corrupted again and when the 'Open with' dialog that I open the file with Notepad.  I tried to "save under" to locate the file and found that it was located in C:\Users.  Something in recent weeks seems to have put a file without an extension, called "Mathew" (my log in name) in this folder, and it began when I started windows.

    I have since deleted the file and am no longer get the "Open with" dialog

    Thanks for your support!
