Lost Addons

Sep 08, 2003 1 Replies

Just installed 2003 over 2001 Plus and lost some of the addons, I can still load the addon by opening the dll file but can I get the addons box to 'see' the missing addons again without reinstalling??


Phil,

Old problem. The solution is "don't do that", ever.

Allways install a new version as a seperate install. When you install over an exsisting version, the shared areas of the registry, like the add on folder (key), get hosed.

If you don't have enough disk space for both installs, uninstall the old version, strip the registry of SW entries, and install the new version.

Regards

Mark
