Hey guys & girls,I've just purchaced TDS-3 but im can't get it to start with windows (win xp),i have checked the box in configurations and to minimize to system tray but it doesn't want to play. Do i have to manually add it to the registry and if so which keys do i edit. Or have i just overlooked something.
Hi Tonyl, Not sure whether this is the culprit, but have you set it up to run as admin? See this thread for example: https://www.wilderssecurity.com/showthread.php?t=29034
Maybe you should also check the Required System Files: https://www.wilderssecurity.com/showthread.php?t=13794
Hi tonyl, welcome! with all the recommendations Jan gave, did you reboot after installation? Maybe best first not to configure as minimized so you see what's happening. But if you could get to the configuration, it must have played for you at least that one time. What happened since that it no no longer seems to show up? Would suggest to have it starting normal and if you like to minimize to systray. Think best also to start it manually after reboot to give it all room to start and do it's initial scans. Please let us know if this helps.
I'd say its a problem due to the new startup procedure in XP SP1 or higher, too much is starting at once. DONT start with Windows from TDS configuration, instead, manually create a shortcut to TDS in your Start Menu > Programs > StartUp folder
Thanks guys,but i found the culprit. Ad-Aware's Ad-Watch,i had checked the box to lock the "Run" registry key. Sorted
