Today I downloaded the latest version of daemon tools compatible to Vista - version 4.08HE. I am using Vista Ultimate 32 bit.
The problem I have is I am using Windows Media Center and its plugin My Movies. Basically My Movies sets up the script to call Daemon tools to mount an Iso of a saved movie, so it can begin playing.
However, The secure mode of daemon tools is causing a problem - each time the UI mounts the image, it is sitting and waiting (remember Media Center is a HTPC software package in Vista - and controls the whole UI, the user is using a remote control in the 10 foot UI experience.)
So up pops behind the scene the prompts for Secure Mode, the application does not see them, and sits waiting...
Now I can turn Secure Mode off via the Options tag when I right click on the Daemon Tools icon. Everything now works fine. Except it is not remembered - If I reboot the machine / logon/off - the next time daemon tools runs - it is started with the default od Secure Mode on. I need it to start with this mode off or to remember its last setting.
Searched the forums - and found nothing - well nothing in English. It never used to work this way on XP and older versions - and is now impeading the use of this application.
Any clues or workarounds to this problem - would be muchly appreciated...
