updated ActiveX automation servers when new software is installed

I am currently using a version of the software for an energy source that I use in my TestStand sequence and I'll have to upgrade to a new version of the software which also has a new library version number when you search for the automation server to use when you create the original object.  Is there a way to automatically update all the steps that use this reference, or will I have to update all them one by one?

If they use the same GUID for all (typelibrary, classids, etc.), and they their implemented interfaces in a backward compatible manner then you shouldn't change anything. If they have changed things, you can try the ID update automation tool in the Tools menu. If this does not work, you can use find and replace.

Hope this helps,

-Doug

    In general - you should leave well enough alone when it comes to patches.  Microsoft does a job just to install only the parts of a patch which aren't already in place - so, even if you started without service pack, got SP1, SP2 and SP3 as well as 100 + post-SP3 fixes - this is not as if the use of space was exactly cumulative...  The overlap himself would have worked.

  • Update of Adobe Reader DC - New Version already installed

    I am currently machine

    Windows 7 Enterprise x 64 with the image of the company

    G2 EliteOne 800 HP AIO

    The user has a corporate webapp that is supposed to view reports in PDF with Adobe Reader form through a HTML framework. The version of Reader included in the image is Adobe Reader X. After testing on the users computer and my own, I found that I could launch the report on my machine (with Adobe Reader DC) but not on the cost to build with Reader X.

    Of course, my first thought was to simply update X DC. I have downloaded and run the installer from the Adobe website, and received a message that says "the installation process failed. A more recent version is already installed. "

    East was quite confused as I was updating certainly from X (an older version) to DC (a newer version). What I found was that the original installation of Reader X disappeared completely and I couldn't reinstall all versions! No ads for Adobe Reader X lies in programs and features.

    The only remaining information that I could find were some reg entries and an empty folder in /Program Files called 'Adobe Reader DC", which was devoid of all files.

    It almost seems that starts the process of update installer replaces the old program, installation failure somewhere but do not make back the installation and reinstall the previous version.

    I also tried to run the cleanup tool from Adobe to remove all persistent files but that did not help at all. In case anyone asks, I have run all the tasks in a user has administrator rights account above.

    Has anyone seen this problem before? As is, the only way I know to get Reader X is to make a new picture of the machine.

    Hi jkraniak ,

    Please try to run the cleanup tool "Download Adobe Reader and Acrobat tool - Adobe Labs" on your machine to remove all traces of the reader.

    Then, restart your machine and install the latest version of the player from here:

  • Microsoft Lifecam VX-2000 shows black video when the software is installed

    Original title: Microsoft Lifecam VX-2000

    I just bought and followed the installation instructions to install and operate the lifecam vx-2000.

    I tried first to find this product on the support webpage itself, but it has not been listed with the other lifecams. I have no idea why, because he is supposed to be a site of support for their products...

    My computer meets the requirements for the software.

    However, after the installation, I opened the microsoft lifecam software, the program screen is black.

    There is no error message. Just a black screen.

    I uninstalled the program and tried to connect the webcam without software and when I opened it upward through Skype video settings to see if she would recognize the camera - he did.

    So I'm a bit puzzled as to why the software will not work with the camera.

    Thus, once the software is loaded on the computer, the video from the camera stops working, until the program is removed once more my computer.

    A little disappointed and do not know how to solve this problem.

    Any suggestions or methods to solve this problem will be appreciated.

  • HP OfficeJet Pro 8600, HP printer wizard installs not when the software is installed from the CD

    HP Officejet Pro 8600 e printer all in one

    Windows 7

    I had Assistant printer installed and working on my computer at least a year, then there was an update and it no longer works.

    I uninstalled the device and the software and reinstalled both on-site and directly from the CD without success.

    The only error I get is when I start everything first install it and there is a red "x" next to the update of windows.

    The installation process ends, the computer will recognize the printer and I am able to print but I have no control any function because none of these options in the wizard for the printer are turned on.  They are all grayed out.   The most important thing I need is the archiving of received faxes.

    Someone else in my family had the same problem, but was able to reinstall from the Web site and doesn't have any more problems.

    Thanks for any help.

    Hi richardelfers

    If there is a problem with the update or permit the best and safest is to download and install firefox:

    1. download a copy of the latest http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html firefox

    2. Trash , install the current application of Firefox to do a cleaning.

    3. install the version you downloaded.

  • Paying, but get the offer to purchase now when the software is installed

    Hey

    Having some problems with getting photoshop to work and im guessing its something with creative cloud.

    For maybe 3-4 weeks there, I probably run out of money on my bank account and received the offer to use the 30 day trial. I was really not thinking about it because

    I would only pay for cc when having money.

    So now, when its paid and I still can't use the software.

    Skärmklipp.PNG

    It does not offer a trial, but he a regular install button. but during the installation it says that my trial is over and I have to buy...

    IM on 10 to win if it has something to do with it...

    Really need photoshop for school work would therefore be grateful for the help

    Yes, it is most likely what is happening. Beta tools are newer that what is available in the update. Ignore the CC update.

  • Update XP to 7 - when I try to install the Microsoft Office 2007 Suite, which was an upgrade on XP, the installation fails because no previous Ms Office could be found.

    There must be a solution out there, but I couldn't find it.  I need to reinstall Office 2007 Suite but cannot because my upgrade discs are looking for a previous installation and of course can't find it.  The version of MS Office, where I have improved in XP has a physically BROKEN DRIVE!  Now what?

    Contact MS Support & see if you can get a free replacement disc, Fern. Without it, you're sunk. See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/326246 (if the earlier version of Office was preinstalled by the OEM, you need to get the replacement on their part.)

  • Adobe Pro update fails after the implementation of software restriction policies Cryptolocker - need to trouble

    Hello everyone

    As part of our protection against the virus Cryptolocker for the rapid spread, I added an object of group policy with strategies for Software Restriction against the execution of files in the temporary directory used by Cryptolocker:

    %AppData%\*.exe

    %AppData%\*\*.exe

    %LocalAppData%\*.exe

    %LocalAppData%\*\*.exe

    for example the directories %APPDATA%\microsoft\windows\sendto and %LocalAppData% variable and a level here

    I also blocked the executables to run within different programs 'zip '.

    I learned later (second hand) that Acrobat Pro and Adobe Flash updates have been blocked by this SRP.  They get an explicit message or fail with another error.  The update download correctly, but when you try to install from the system tray icon, it fails.

    If I'll find the downloaded file. MSP file (I have Acrobat Pro 10, so mine was in c:\program data\adobe\ARM\Acrobat_10.1.5) and click on 'Install', it installs successfully.

    We have an administrator is not restricted, but do account updates for people is not a good long-term solution.

    Can someone with experience with this please tell me if there is a specific executable or executables that I can 'whitelist' by adding to my strategy of Software Restriction as a file "without restriction."  The kicker with the 'white list', it's that I need to bless a specific executable (for example I can't quote a directory or give wildcards... There must be a path and the fully qualified name).

    NOTE: We have for most of the Windows 7 machines (no Win 7 is Vista have so the same user directory structure) and a mixture of Acrobat 9 Pro, X, XI

    Thank you very much in advance for your help.

    Updates, most is the MSI file. In all cases, you succeed to make manual updates of http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=1&platform=Windows. Download the most recent update (each update will tell you the necessary previous version where you can ignore some). Then perform updates in the order. Simply restart after the update is complete.
