Found Deals and Discounts / Re: Bits - Ultra Recall
« on: January 21, 2012, 12:01 PM »Oops - another little irritant I just discovered, though it is actually a Microsoft thing, not directly an Ultra Recall thing. Prior to this I could open and edit any Microsoft document (Word, Excel, Outlook - never tried PPT or PUB) within Ultra Recall. Nice feature, not having to open the Office app associated with the file. Now however with Office 2010, Microsoft has disallowed opening any file outside of the associated Office 2010 app. :( >:(
Ultra Recall uses Internet Explorer as it's internal browser and so used that to open/edit Microsoft Office files. Now Microsoft no longer allows Office files to open in IE - safety/security thing apparently, or so Microsoft claims. A real PITA though. Now clicking on an Office file inside Ultra Recall opens the file in its native app - Word, Excel, etc. Not a tremendous hardship but it is nice to be able to do it all in UR. Hopefully someone finds a hack for this!
Thank you.

You can display files internally in UR under Office 2010 by following the instructions at http://www.kinook.com/Forum/showthread.php?threadid=1042 (if necessary, you can DL the registry file at the site and double-click it to install) - I tried this and it worked for me.
Good luck and enjoy!
