Launchbase Internal Error

[ThePredator]

IE? Are you talking about IE (internet explorer) or the Internal Error?
If it is Internet Exp, none. I use Chrome (of the almighty Google ©) <- Thats advertising right?

[AlexB]

I meant Internet Explorer, pardon the confusion. Did you uninstall it or just never updated it? Windows depends on that thing and some features would not work without it. If you didn't do anything to it, it should still be IE 6.0 in WinXP SP2.

Any luck with reinstalling the VB6 runtime files?

(Microsoft's worse. They put little TMs behind everything. Everything is a trademark to them.)

[ThePredator]

I installed Chrome, left IE for what it was, removed icons and sh*t.
Visual â„¢ Basicâ„¢ 6 â„¢ files?
I am going to work on them tomorrow, its evening here.
The last time I tried it was a big fail

[ThePredator]

I have installed this one:

Again, without result... Before that I installed VB6SP5 RT files, also without result.
The LB.txt:

Maybe something different?

[AlexB]

Hmm. The only thing I can think of now would be the Scripting Runtime that may be used for getting the installed mods.

If this does not work, I have no idea.

[ThePredator]

You are the BEST!
It worked!
Thanks
With 5.7, 5.6 is getting repackaged...

[Marshall]

Thanks again Alex, you're sure making things easier for me.

I wonder if simply including scrrun.dll with Launch Base would have solved this...

[AlexB]

Hi Marshall,

this would most likely create a versioning problem.
Scrrun.dll and companions depend on the Windows version.

The best way would be to distribute the installers along with LB,
but this would increase the size vastly.
