Windows 7
From Wildsong
I am a Linux and Mac user trapped in the body of a Windows 7 developer.
ACT = Application Compatibility Toolkit
This is about ACT version 5.6, the one available today. 11/21/2011
Using ACT involves three steps
- Collect data
- Analyze data
- Fix what is broken
Collect data: the tool is designed for the "enterprise" so it can be deployed on 100's of desktops and run on a schedule
I only want to run it when I need it!
Analyze data: sounds good
Fix what is broken: that's what I am trying to do.
In my case I have an application (that I wrote) that cannot access its own data once it has been installed. I think I might just need to put asInvoker in its manifest but I'd like to know the proper way to determine the settings it needs.
Because lately I don't trust any software at all I am trying it in a virtual machine.
