SFP doesn't start at windows startup ? help please

spacef · Post by **spacef** » Sat Nov 16, 2002 3:00 pm

I just reainstalled SFP (3.1a then 3.1c update) but SFP doesn't start at windows startup ? All what appear is the directory were i have my creamware downloads (d:/creamware), in a ms Explorer window !

My app directory ( D:/CreamwareApp ) is what i see in the msconfig entries :

Command is :
d:/CreamwareApp/App/bin/sfp.exe - s

yes slashes are inversed ( / , instead of the normal )

Anyone has a solution ?
I installed twice but it is the same. It never happened to me before.

nb, my creamware app dir has always been something else than just "d:creamware" and it always worked before, so i don't know what is this new things.

Thanks for your help.

OS is XP pro SP1

yes the Startprojct is there and works fine, loads at sfp startup....

I guess i'll uninstall and reinstall everything.

funny the dos slash doesn't appear on planetz neither

let's test code :

Code: Select all

Never happened here, still some thoughts:
-is there a StartProject.pro in the AppSFPApp folder? Try to open it in SFP, is it valid?
-if you can see it in msconfig, i suppose Background Project is enabled in SFP.

It's normal for CW to change "" to "/" for local use too, but I guess you knew that.

i must have made a mistake somewhere.

CW advises to install in drive:SFP, not to make the install path too long. I doubt that could be already the case though, your install folder's name is not that long.

no and it worked with longer names.

Just to be certain :
Do you need to install 3.1 before 3.1a ?
My latest info were that only 3.1a and 3.1c are needed ?
May be that's the mistake ?
i'll wait a bit for your answer.

3.1a is a full installation, 3.1c it's current update, you're not mistaken

btw, the mirror for full SFP software is still on my homepage.

I deleted and reinstalled everything and now it's fine.
SFP is not in the windows installed softwares (intall/unistall panel)
well, i guess this is normal (never noticed before)...
pffeew, i was afraid to have to reinstall xp again....

ok, still some work to do to have my studio back

see you
and thanks

By the way i installed in a :sfp but i would be surprised that this is the cause... (may be i should delete again for testing... heheé, no no , let's do some music)
