Kiosk mode booboo

[christofarian]

hey guys aprently i typed in my password wrong when initializing kiosk mode . . .now i cant get it out of kiosk mode cause it wont take my password lol . . is there anyway to undo kiosk mode through the xml files or do i gotta reinstall?   i feel like such a nub

[Archon of Fate]

it might be in the config.ini file in the settings folder... other than that i'd save the config file and move it to a fresh install... that might help

that sucks 

I'll be honest in saying I have no idea now.... i'd wait for either Sarge or Markham to respond on this.
it'll be safe to assume then that all attempts with working with the config file failed miserably? hmmm... Completely stumped now 

only suggestion now from me is to start over... had to do this a few times too, but in the end got the program to work...
starting multiple instances is kinda weird... you dont want to start each one at the same time. you got to do it in an order, like start first one once loaded start another and so forth..

I did make a bat file that will execute each instance of cd in turn, this may solve your startup errors it did for me about 90% of the time

here's the code...

timeout 10
start C:\"Circle Dock4"\"CircleDock.exe"
timeout 20
start C:\"Circle Dock3"\"CircleDock.exe"
timeout 20
start C:\"Circle Dock2"\"CircleDock.exe"
timeout 20
start C:\"Circle Dock1"\"CircleDock.exe"

exit

*****
use this code in a txt file and save it with the extension .bat and it should work... you'll have to change each file to your cd locations

hope that helps 

as for the password error I got no idea, sorry

Let me do some homework tonight, and see what I come up with 

[Markham]

I have just checked and Kiosk Mode removal is working just fine. You absolutely must enter the password exactly as you did to enter Kiosk Mode: passwords are case-sensitive and all characters are significant, including leading and trailing spaces.

The Config.ini file is created by the installation program and is read by Circle Dock only if it is a fresh installation: Circle Dock stores its configuration information in a securely-encrypted XML file which may or may not be located in the System\Settings folder. Deleting Config.ini will have no effect on Kiosk Mode.

archon . . i new about the startup script when i first installed it . . lol  . . and i have done 4 fresh installs each time i put into kiosk mode . . put my pass in and then cant get back in . .btw guys jsut a lil background on me, i am a technology specialist that works for a company called freedomtec . . www.freedomtec.com, so tourbleshooting is one of my main jobs  . . all i have to say is this program gives me a headache . .BUT I LOVE IT SOOOO MUCH  . . BTW, the majority of times when i start my circle docks up i get this error  . . Current domain unhandled exception. . . . .its startign to get really annoying pretty much everytime i start an instance of circle dock i gotta go through this error 2 or 3 times.

Are you using the same password for each instance or different passwords????

[christofarian]

Ok that rules out what I was thinking 

[Markham]

Do you have more than one Circle Dock folder under "Program Files\" or "Program Files (X86)\"?

[christofarian]

i dont have any folders under there   . . its all under c:\circledock1-3
