Control focus of WIN32 applications

Hi,
Is there any possibility in LV to control behavior of WIN32 applications? 
I've tried  WIN32 library (lvwutil32.zip) without success.
I'm interested especially in switching focus between WIN32 windows.
I also wonder if there is a way to send to win32 application a system message about pressed key?

The SetFocus Windows API function will do that. You need to provide the window refnum, and the "Get Window RefNum" function from the WinUtil library will give you that.

This question gets asked a lot. Do a search for SendKey or SendInput. You'll find plenty of examples.

  • I am trying to download icloud control panel via icloudsetup.exe to windows Toshiba laptop and get a message" \icloudsetup.exe is not a valid Win32 application. Can anyone help? I am new to Apple stuff.

    Need help for icloud photo stream, have activated ps on iphone 4 and set up icloud back up for email, contacts, iwork, and find my ihone. Need to find photos that we thought were being saved/shared as well but evidently not. Found on another search that I may need the icloud control panel so tried to download it but when try to install i get, C:\Users\Downloads\icloudsetup.exe is not a valid Win32 application. I am using a Toshiba laptop with windows 7, which the system requirements are met. I am new to Apple stuff, so any and all help would be greatly appreciated.

    It suggests the installer is getting damaged during the download.
    I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:

    If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?

  • How to embed an Applet in a win32 application ?

    Hi,
    I want to write a win32 application and embed in it applet, just like IE or Netscape ...
    does anyone know how to do that ?
    could-you also cc code sample here: [email protected]
    thanks...

    I think the easiest way to do this (though probably not the most efficient) is just to embed the Microsoft browser component in your application. It's pretty easy to do in (dare I say it) VB, but I'm sure it can be done in Win32/MFC as well, since the Microsoft Web Browser comonent is just an ActiveX control. I can't say that I've ever tried to do it for the purpose of viewing an applet though, and I don't know how you'd communicate with the applet, if you needed to.
    VC++ 6.0 can generate the code for it. In the UI builder, right-click and select 'Insert ActiveX control', and select the 'Microsoft Browser Component'. Let it chug for a bit, and use class wizard to create a class/variable for it. Once you have the browser in place, just create a simple local html file that loads the applet in the right position / size and point the browser to the HTML file. While this should meet the basic requirements that you described, I don't know that it'll really meet your needs, or even how well it will work, but it should work in theory

    I'm gonna move to theory, everything works in theory.

  • "adobe .ai or .eps file" is not a valid Win32 application

    I'm on Windows XP and can't open Illustrator .AI or .EPS files by double clicking them. When I do I get the error "...is not a valid Win32 application". I must go to file>open or drag the file icon to the AI icon. I checked some other threads, but had no luck. I did try going to control panel>folder options>file types>opens with. But that did not work. Photoshop and Acrobat files open fine when I double click them.
    thanks

    As I wrote many times, the best cure in such situations is to entirely delete any existing references to a file type or program from that list, then create the rules again from scratch. Nothing as refreshing as starting with a clean slate. In addition, check, whether other programs are having a hold on certain associations and/or are simply flooding your context menu with nonsense stuiff. Tools such as Nero burning software, various packer tools and a colorful array of other software have the bad habit of doing that...

  • Having error message when i try to download some application it says that the program is not a Win32 application so can't open or run it..

    like on graiglist when I look for job and press the reply button to send my resume info to the employer, I get this error message all the time.
    The add-in “C:\PROGRAM 1\AVG\AVG8\avgxch32.dll” could not be installed or loaded
    This problem may be resolved by using Detect and Repair on the Help enu. Unable to load.
    You may be out of memory out of a system resources, or missing a .dll file.
    and the error message i get when i try to run or download an application

    [[Firefox is already running but is not responding]] has steps that you can try. It sounds like you may have something that is hanging your browser on exit (probably an extension or a locked profile) and the steps on that page should help clear it up.

    It is possible that your anti-virus software is corrupting the downloaded files or otherwise interfering with downloading files by Firefox.
    Try to disable the real-time (live) scanning of files in your anti-virus software temporarily to see if that makes downloading work.
    See "Disable virus scanning in Firefox preferences - Windows"

    To troubleshoot, we tried running the x86 version of scanstate.exe (from USMT from the Windows 8.1 ADK) manually by just double clicking on it on a few Windows XP SP3 systems and we get a similar error as seen below...
    So, we thought maybe USMT from our Windows 8.1 ADK install maybe somehow corrupt, but downloading and installing it again results in the same error, so it does not seem to be a file corruption issue.   The x64 version of scanstate.exe works
    fine on 64-bit OS's, its just Windows XP SP3 (32-bit) we are seeing this error.
    Has anyone successfully using scanstate.exe from USMT 5.0 from the Windows 8.1 ADK successfully to capture user state from a Windows XP SP3 (32-bit) system?
    Regards,
    JJ

    Windows 8.1 ADK comes with a newer version of USMT (NOT 5.0) and crashes. I learned this today the hard way. I hope Windows 8.0 ADK's loadstate.exe works for restoring to a 8.1 machine.
    Yesterday i used Windows Easy Transfer to move from XP to 7, and then re-did the backup in 7 so it would be compatible with 8.1, and it only restores files, not settings.
    So i will test USMT 5.0 in this same scenario, because i have 30 machines to change to newer machines with 8.1

  • Error when installing VMM - %1 is not a valid Win32 application

    Hi all
    I'm attemping an install of SCVMM and despite installing all prerequisites I'm faced with the following when I launch the installer/disc and click 'Install':
    "Error starting the Virtual Machine Manager Setup Wizard. %1 is not a valid Win32 application"
    this error is the proceeded with another:
    "Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable was not successfully installed. The selected Virtual Machine Manager feature cannot be installed without this prerequisite. Retry setup or manually install Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable
    from Microsoft Download Center."
    The latter package is already installed and I have re-downloaded and re-installed as well to no avail. All .Net packages are installed too.
    I'm running a Windows Server 2012 R2 x64 virtual machine in a HyperV host (HyperV Server 2012) and have navigated the disc and launched the "SetupVMM.exe" located in the amd64 directory as I realise the above Win32 error points to a x86 application
    - still no joy, the same errors!
    I have tried the installer in a VMWare 2012 server with the same error and on a physical Windows 7 machine again same error so this makes me think I'm either missing something basic or have overlooked something seems the environment doesn't seem to make
    a difference (although obviously not attempted a x86 environment but SCVMM is listed as x86 or x64).
    This is for a lab test and personal experience before production so I realise running SCVMM within a virtual machine that is hosted on the same hypervisor isn't good practice - but it's a start :)
    Thanks in advance for any help you can give me.
    Sam

    Are you installing directly from the ISO? If so, you can try with a new ISO in case this is broken. Also make sure your machine is joined to the domain and that you are executing the setup in the context of a local administrator.
    Eventually, try to copy the ISO to local disk and run setup from there.
