A validation problem with possible clues to problem
I have been using TI since 2009. We have 2 computers each with TI installed. Mine (new for >year) is running Win 8.1 and my wife's is still running Win XP. Since Win 8.1 I have been having problems validating files. Until a couple of weeks ago We used a NAS drive off the router + a USB drive off the NAS drive's USB port. The problem go to be too much so I unhooked the NAS drive and hooked the USB drive directly to my computer. The XP computer seems OK with this but My validate problem is still here. I finally looked in the validate failure log file and found that TI was still trying to use at least part of the path and file name from when we were using the NAS drive.
SO, TI can write a file to where it is suppose to go but gets some information from the past as to where to find the file for validation.
Being somewhat a risk taker, I scanned through my registry and found several references to the old NAS path. I deleted these with no computer problems but no validation help. I then scanned for just the old path name with out the "\\' ("EXT_DRIVE_1" instead of "\\EXT_DRIVE_1") that precedes the path and found another entry. I couldn't delete this on because it was tied to the DLL file, "DAFUPnP.DLL" under the DLL's field "FriendlyName"
See 3 attachments for clarity.
The first show the general location in the registry location in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
The second shoes the data fields of that DLL file
The third shows the TI window that will come up trying to pursue the validation. The entire PATH & FOLDER NAME shown is old & incorrect and the path reflects the old entry in the registry.. And TI offers no place where I can find to correct this. There must be some kind of the program's cash that holds this old information. I have tried to reinstall TI with no success.
ALSO does anyone know a way to disassociate the old path name from the DLL field entry. Maybe UN-register that DLL , reboot, then remove it and then re-register it back again?
I''ll appreciate help from anyone!!
