No icon in explorer or any file open window in Vista

Hi,

I downloaded AD and ran my eval in xp and was most impressed. I have now upgraded to VISTA, but have found that the AD icon does not display in windows explorer or in any editors. I have also found that when using TextPad (my text editor), if I click on where I think the AD link should be on the window, then the AD menus appears. However, this only occurs with TextPad.

Please advise

TIA

This is a known issue. Vista doesn''t allow to draw custom icons in windows captions when Aero mode is enabled. However you can easily use the tray icon of AutoDialogs to navigate in the current Open/Save window. Or assign hotkeys to the favorite folders in AutoDialogs.

Thank you so much for your prompt response. Is there any plan to resolved or work around this issue. I have certainly seen enough of the product to know that I cannot live without it.

We are still looking for a solution for that. I am really sorry that I cannot promise you any timeframe.

Hi,

It''s a year later. Surely there must be some solution to this by now.

Hi Oleg,

Is there any way for me to extend the eval period? When the new version loads, it then exist due to the 30 day eval period having been expired. Remember, I installed the old version about a year ago.

TIA

Has this issue with AERO and the button been fixed? I am planning to download the current version to try in Windows 7/Aero
