Find And Run Robot / FARR Unable to launch VirtualBox (and perhaps others) in Win7?
« on: June 02, 2009, 10:21 AM »
I've been using FARR with Windows 7 x64(both beta and RC) and have noticed that while for the most part it works just fine, there are certain very rare programs that it can't seem to launch.  The only example that I can provide at the moment (because it's the only one that I use enough to remember) is VirtualBox.  I have no idea why, but when I try to launch the VirtualBox Manager using FARR, either nothing happens (if the "Launch Method" is set to "Method 1 - ShellExecute") or Windows tells me that the path to the .lnk file does not exist (if the "Launch Method" is set to "Method 2 - ShellExcuteEx" [SIC]).  Both the path to the shortcut and the executable exist and the shortcut launches just fine using Explorer.  I can't figure out what is different about this program.  I've tried compatibility modes, security settings, etc.  Seems to be something with the path, but I can't figure it out.  Has anyone else seen anything like this?

ProcessTamer / Process Tamer and Windows Service Priorities
« on: March 08, 2007, 09:28 AM »
Does anyone know of a way to use process tamer (or anything else; registry, whatever) to control a specific windows service running in svchost.exe?  It seems that there is no way to differentiate the various svchost services.  I don't want to change them all.

Post New Requests Here / DONE: Hotkey Toggle Screen Resolution
« on: September 17, 2006, 11:42 AM »
I would love to have something that would allow me to toggle between two (or more) screen resolution modes with a hotkey.  There are a couple programs out there (e.g. QRes) that can do this via command line and I could incorporate one into an Autohotkey script, but I would prefer to do it all in one app.  I assume that there must be some way to use Autohotkey to do this, using "DllCall" or something like that.  If anyone has any ideas as to how this can be done (or if anyone could whip up something :) ), I would appreciate it.
