  Installation completed correctly but Apps don’t run

  May 30, 2007 12:36 AM | LINK

  I downloaded the silverlight player then ran the installation program. The installer seems to be completed successfully but when I try to run any silverlight application it doesn’t run and instead I get the image to install silverlight.

  When I looked in my add/remove programs it looks like silverlight is installed. I tried to remove and reinstall multiple times, both Beta and Alpha, but without any luck.

  Any idea what might be the problem?

   

  I am running Windows Vista on a MacBook Pro. (bootcamp 1.2 beta).

  If running IE as admin fixes it, it is probably cause by old registry keys. Running the following commands in a command line window should fix it.

  reg delete HKCR\TypeLib\{283C8576-0726-4DBC-9609-3F855162009A}\0.8

  reg delete HKCR\TypeLib\{283C8576-0726-4DBC-9609-3F855162009A}\0.8.5.0

  reg delete HKCU\SOFTWARE\Classes\TypeLib\{283C8576-0726-4DBC-9609-3F855162009A}\0.8

  reg delete HKCU\SOFTWARE\Classes\TypeLib\{283C8576-0726-4DBC-9609-3F855162009A}\0.8.5.0

  reg delete HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\TypeLib\{283C8576-0726-4DBC-9609-3F855162009A}\0.8

  reg delete HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\TypeLib\{283C8576-0726-4DBC-9609-3F855162009A}\0.8.5.0
