Cannot run YoWindow on netbook

Post by carla_francisco »

I have the unlimited edition of YoWindow installed in my desktop PC. As per the license agreement, I'm allowed to install it in one other computer, so I tried to install it in the netbook I usually take with me on travels.
The program installs without any problem, but when I try to run it, the following message appears:

This is a brand new computer, running Windows 7, and I know that I have Adobe Flash Player 10 Plugin installed (I can see - even in full screen mode - the YoWindow widget just fine on the netbook - I have it in some of my blogs and on my iGoogle page).
I even reinstalled the plugin (the Internet Explorer version and the Other Browsers version), to no avail... I also tried installing two different release candidates (445 and 447) but I got the same error with both versions.

Has this happened to anyone else - more importantly, is there a known solution for this?

Thanks.

Hi Carla!

just to complete your bug-report: could you please post a screenshot like the following to let us know the version of flash-player the widget on your netbook (!) is running on?

Just click on the widget with the right mouse-button and make a screen-hardcopy which you can post here.

Thank you very much!

Hi, thanks for getting back to this so soon!
I made the screenshot (on the netbook) with the widget in full screen mode:

Hope this helps.

Hello, I'm back... with good news :)

YoWindow is now working fine on my netbook. I don't know if this had something to do with it, but there were a few Windows updates waiting to be installed and I decided to install them - et voilà! Upon restart of the computer, stubborn little me tried yet again to start YoWindow and now it's running in all its glory!

Anyway, thank you very much for trying to help me out!
It's good to know you guys are there for us... :)
