adfview problems
Hi I use adfview on xp, to view/copy files to .adf images.
But now the program can no longer open .adf images so hence I can't copy/view files into and out of .adf. Which really does limit my emulation. I dont use it 100% for games. I was wondering if this is because I installed the latest MS security update, and it may have upped the security to registry files or something. any ideas or alternatives? |

ADFView
Load Notepad and enter following:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\.adf] @="ADFView" [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\.adf\ShellNew] "Command"="RUNDLL32 C:\\WINDOWS\\System32\\ShellExt\\AdfView.dll,ShellNew %2" then save as a adfview.reg file and run it and see if that fixes it. |

OK, I'll just assume for a moment that the setup program fulfilled it's task and ADFView is installed.
It could be a simple file extension conflict. From the Registry (regedit.exe), try removing any relevant user-made file type associations of which ADFView does not assign itself, namely those below. [-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.adf] [-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.hdf] Next, try manually un-registering and then re-registering the ADFView Shell Extension. First, be sure that the files "AdfView.dll" "AdfView.hlp" "AdfView.cnt" "stdboot.bbk" exist at the correct location, that being "%SystemRoot%\system32\ShellExt\". At "Run..." or a CMD prompt, issue the following commands. REGSVR32 /u "%SystemRoot%\system32\ShellExt\AdfView.dll" REGSVR32 "%SystemRoot%\system32\ShellExt\AdfView.dll" Else, ADFOpus. |

And still nothing?
Invoke ADFView (in)directly with a command such as: explorer /root,{2B3256E4-49DF-11D3-8229-0080AE509054},"C:\Another World.adf" Substitute "C:\Another World.adf" with the full path and file name of any ADOS formatted ADF or HDF on your computer. Then report the result here. |

Cut 'n' Paste the code below into some DOS text editor (e.g. Notepad) and save it with a .reg extension, and then import/merge it into the Registry.
IF it does NOT import successfully, then your User needs Administrators' priviliges. The Registry data below encompasses all ADFView entries from a first install (and then some). IMPORTANT: It assumes %WINDIR% expands to "C:\WINDOWS", not "C:\WINNT", for example. Code:
REGEDIT4 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\policies\Explorer] "EnforceShellExtensionSecurity"=- [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer] "EnforceShellExtensionSecurity"=- [-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.adf] [-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.hdf] [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{2B3256E4-49DF-11D3-8229-0080AE509054}] [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{2B3256E4-49DF-11D3-8229-0080AE509054}\DefaultIcon] [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{2B3256E4-49DF-11D3-8229-0080AE509054}\InprocServer32] [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{2B3256E4-49DF-11D3-8229-0080AE509054}\ShellFolder] "Attributes"=dword:E8000100 [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{2B3256E4-49DF-11D3-8229-0080AE509054}\InprocServer32] @="C:\\WINDOWS\\system32\\ShellExt\\AdfView.dll" "ThreadingModel"="Apartment" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{2B3256E4-49DF-11D3-8229-0080AE509054}\DefaultIcon] @="C:\\WINDOWS\\system32\\ShellExt\\AdfView.dll" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{2B3256E4-49DF-11D3-8229-0080AE509054}] @="Amiga Disk File" "InfoTip"="ADF File" "EditFlags"=hex(3):00,00,01,00 [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{2B3256E4-49DF-11D3-8229-0080AE509055}] [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{2B3256E4-49DF-11D3-8229-0080AE509055}\InprocServer32] @="C:\\WINDOWS\\system32\\ShellExt\\AdfView.dll" "ThreadingModel"="Apartment" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{2B3256E4-49DF-11D3-8229-0080AE509055}] @="Amiga Disk File View" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{2B3256E4-49DF-11D3-8229-0080AE509056}] [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{2B3256E4-49DF-11D3-8229-0080AE509056}\InprocServer32] @="C:\\WINDOWS\\system32\\ShellExt\\AdfView.dll" "ThreadingModel"="Apartment" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{2B3256E4-49DF-11D3-8229-0080AE509056}] @="ADFView Property Sheet" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{2B3256E4-49DF-11D3-8229-0080AE509058}] [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{2B3256E4-49DF-11D3-8229-0080AE509058}\InprocServer32] @="C:\\WINDOWS\\system32\\ShellExt\\AdfView.dll" "ThreadingModel"="Apartment" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{2B3256E4-49DF-11D3-8229-0080AE509058}] @="ADFView Drop Handler" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.adf] [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.adf\ShellNew] "Command"="RUNDLL32 C:\\WINDOWS\\system32\\ShellExt\\AdfView.dll,ShellNew %2" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.adf] @="ADFView" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.hdf] @="ADFView" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\ADFView] [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\ADFView\CLSID] [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\ADFView\Shell] [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\ADFView\Shell\explore] [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\ADFView\Shell\explore\Command] @="explorer /e,/root,{2B3256E4-49DF-11D3-8229-0080AE509054},%1" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\ADFView\Shell\open] [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\ADFView\Shell\open\Command] @="explorer /root,{2B3256E4-49DF-11D3-8229-0080AE509054},%1" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\ADFView\ShellEx] [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\ADFView\ShellEx\DropHandler] [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\ADFView\ShellEx\PropertySheetHandlers] [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\ADFView\ShellEx\PropertySheetHandlers\{2B3256E4-49DF-11D3-8229-0080AE509056}] @="" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\ADFView\ShellEx\DropHandler] @="{2B3256E4-49DF-11D3-8229-0080AE509058}" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\ADFView\CLSID] @="{2B3256E4-49DF-11D3-8229-0080AE509054}" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\ADFView] @="Amiga Disk File" [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Shell Extensions\Approved] "{2B3256E4-49DF-11D3-8229-0080AE509054}"="Amiga Disk File" "{2B3256E4-49DF-11D3-8229-0080AE509056}"="ADFView Property Sheet" "{2B3256E4-49DF-11D3-8229-0080AE509058}"="ADFView Drop Handler" |

Not one of those updates break ADFView, unfortunately! Going by what you said in your initial post, I had to explore that avenue, to be sure.
Let's have a look at your running processes, if you're game? At the CMD prompt, enter: TASKLIST /SVC (Paste the output between CODE tags, so it's easy to read.) I don't expect to find the culprit, but y'never know. |

Bugger, either you have a butchered version of Windows or XP Home (one and the same, heh). TASKLIST.EXE is present only in XP Pro. Never mind, moving on.
Question, are you able to create a New->"Amiga Disk File" as you would create a New->"Folder" via the right-click shortcut menu? This would indicate whether the DLL is being loaded or not at all, and tell us whereabouts to look next for the problem. Well, I've tried to help all I can, short of debugging the program itself, but I don't have the time for that, sorry. |

Apologies for resurrecting such an old thread, but had the same thing happen to me after installing Amiga Forever.
The Cut'n'Paste option worked (with an additional step) for me. After applying the reg file, I then re-installed AdfView, and it's now working as it was before. |
