Uninstalling HHActiveX.dll from the Registry?

I am using RoboHelp 7.03.001. I have ActiveX features, such as a Glossary, in my projects. I am providing the CHM file and the HHActiveX.dll file to the developer. Everything help-wise works great. The problem is that the developer wants the HHActiveX.dll file to be removed from the registry when the user uninstalls our product, but it does not uninstall.
Is the version of HHActiveX.dll that we are using (7.01.001) the current version? (Would that matter?)
If there is a more current version, where can I download it. (I recently updated RH to v7.03, but the DLL is still 7.01, if that matters.)
Is there a process that I can pass on to our developer so that he can remove the file from the registry as part of his uninstall process?
Thanks!
Karla Marsh

Hi there
Leaving HHActiveX.dll behind shouldn't be an issue. Sure, I understand that your developer wants to do a good job in cleaning up after him/her self, but how can you be absolutely certain you aren't clobbering the help for a different product that uses RoboHelp?
There is nothing special about this file that your developer should need to know to remove it. It is registered like you register other DLLs. So whatever has to happen with those happens with this one.
Cheers... Rick

  • Uninstaller utility does not remove the installation from the registry

    In our environment, we publish a script in Group Policy so that both the ActiveX and Plugin installs for flash player are easily installed for staff that have limited user access on their computers.  I usually remove or replace the old MSI files from the path the above script installs from when I get new versions of Flash Player.  For a while, I've run into a problem where when the new MSI files are installed, they try to uninstall the existing installation and fail because the old MSI file is no longer at the original installation source path.  I've tried to remedy this by having the script use the uninstall_flash_player utility to manually remove the activex and plugin first, but this utility does not remove the installation details of each from the registry, and the subsequent installations of the MSI files fail.  I have to uninstall the existing flash player installations first or perform a registry hack to formally remove the installation from Windows, and then the new installation will succeed.
    Does anybody have any advice for making this process work better?  Would this be considered a bug with the uninstaller tool?

  • Using WQL "one-liner" to extract a value from the registry

    Can I extract a value from the registry using a "one-liner" WQL command?  Something like the following:
    Under root\default:StdRegProv
                   SELECT <Data> FROM "HKLM:SOFTWARE\Toto\Version"
    Please note that I am aware of how this is done via script.  The problem is that I'm using a management system (SCOM), which only allows me to supply a simple WQL query to perform my evaluation.
    Thanks,

  • Reading the printer name from the registry

    Hi,
    I am trying to use the following program to get the Printer name from my Registry.. this program has been taken from Forums.
    package yourpackage;
    import java.awt.Graphics;
    import java.awt.print.PageFormat;
    import java.awt.print.Printable;
    import java.awt.print.PrinterException;
    import java.awt.print.PrinterJob;
    import oracle.forms.ui.VBean;
    import oracle.forms.properties.ID;
    public class printDialog extends VBean
    private static final ID PRINTER = ID.registerProperty("PRINTER");
    public printDialog()
    class PrintObject implements Printable
    public int print (Graphics g, PageFormat f, int pageIndex)
    return NO_SUCH_PAGE;
    public Object getProperty(ID id)
    if (id == PRINTER) {
    PrinterJob job = PrinterJob.getPrinterJob();
    job.setPrintable(new PrintObject());
    if (job.printDialog())
    return job.getPrintService().getName();
    } else {
    return null;
    } else {
    return null;}
    This program when compiled gives me the error as
    Error(32,12): method getPrintService() not found in class java.awt.print.PrinterJob
    I did set the project settings from Project-Project Settings and included Oracle Forms Libraries. But I still continue to get the error.
    I understood from the web that I need to put PrintService class which downloaded from the web as part of jnlp.jar
    How should I set this if this is the correct one?
    Early response would be highly appreciated
    Thanks a lot for your time and help
    Narain.

    Narain,
    I could swear I answered this on teh Jdeveloper forum ;-)
    The prin service is part pf Java 1.4, which means that it is not available in JInitiator today. Use the Java Plugin 1.4 and the required classes are present. JNLP stands for Java Network Launching Protocoll and has nothing to do with what you want to achieve.
    In addition, to read the printer names from Forms your jar file has to be signed.

  • Debugging a vc dll from the diadem?

    Hi all,
      I want to debug a vc dll that is  being used in the diadem script. I Have registered the dll in the diadem. My primary aim is to debug the vc++ code from the diadem once the function in the vc dll is occured in the diadem script. My version of diadem is 9.1 and vc is 6. I have given the target application in the visual studio to be diadem and tried running  in the debug but the debug is not going in to the vc code.
    If some one have encountered the same before let me know the steps in doing this process. The dll i'm using is a GPI extension DLL

    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hello SKB!
    I did this - the same way you did - for a long time without any problem. The only thing I can imagine is that the VC output DLL ist not the DLL you load in DIAdem. In a standard configuration the DLL debug version will be in the 'debug' directory of your project. In DIAdem this DLL must be registered. To be 100% confident you can use the tool 'Process Monitor' from SysInternals to view all DLLs loaded by DIAdem. If you check this just run your script in DIAdem first because DIAdem loads the DLLs on demand.

  • TS1702 How do you uninstall an app from the IPad? I can find no uninstall feature in settings.

    How do you uninstall an app from an iPad. I cannot find any uninstall feature in settings and no help feature.

    Press on the app and hold until the apps begin to wiggle. Tap on the circled "x" that appears in the upper left corner.
    If you sync with iTunes, then connect the device to your computer and open iTunes. Select the Apps option under the Library heading. Locate the app, select it, then press the Delete key. This removes it completely.

  • Uninstalling Caffine App from the App Store.

    Hi...Can anyone tell me how to remove the Caffine App which has been installed from the App Store - doesn't appear to have an uninstaller option. Pretty novice at Mac stuff at the minute!
    Thanks

    The general rule of thumb is that a program that is installed by dragging it to the Applications folder can safely be deleted by dragging it to the trash and emptying the trash. If you get a message saying the trash cannot be emptied because a file is active, restart the computer and again empty the trash.
    A program that is installed using an installation program may also be de-installed using the same installation program. (I've gotten into the habit of using a label (look under the File menu) to mark applications that get installed this way.) If the installer doesn't also have a de-installer then you can simply put it in the trash and empty it.
    All programs create a small preferences file, usually found in your Library folder in the Preferences folder, and some create a folder in the Application's Support folder. These may take up a bit of space on the hard drive but won't slow your computer down if you don't delete them. Unlike Windows, the Mac really doesn't require a special uninstaller application.

  • How to run the Quick Repair in Uninstall a Program from the command line

    Hello everyone.  Right now we're manually going onto machines and opening Control Panel, Uninstall a Program, then doing a Change on our Office 365 2013 installs to run the Quick Repair option.  Is there a better way to do this with a command line
    command (that only references local files on the machines), or just issues the same exact command that our manual intervention described above does? 
    We have the click to run version installed also if that matters.

    Hi,

  • How do I remove/uninstall an application from the App Store?

    I have deleted the applications, emptied the trash, and restarted my computer, yet the applications remain labeled as "Installed" in the App Store.
    Specifically, two applications, which were both downloaded and installed via the App Store:
    - GrowlVoice
    - Caffeine
    I'm sure the other applications would show the same behavior but I haven't tested it.
    The reason I deleted them is because they got stuck while Updating. Caffeine is constantly "Waiting...", and GrowlVoice goes back and forth every 10 seconds or so between "Downloading (0/240KB)" and "Installed". It never actually downloads anything though.
    I just want to remove the applications and force-reinstall them, but for some reason the App Store thinks they're installed, or downloading, or something.

    The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico, Spanish is my native tongue. I do not speak English very well, however, I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
    The Mac App Store (MAS) can see versions of the apps that are on connected partitions or hard drives, such as a Time Machine backup. DIsconnect these and the MAS should not see the installed apps.

  • How do I uninstall an add on file from the Seamonkey browser?

    HOW DO I UNINSTALL AN ADD ON FILE FROM MY SEAMONKEY BROWSER?
    Mozilla needs to make their products more user friendly. There is a multitude of people out there
    who are "NOT" very computer literate. Older people like myself, for example, who are old
    school, have a difficult time being dragged kicking and screaming into the electronic generation.
    My grandchildren are better at this kind of stuff than I am; yet we really don't have much choice
    but to try and make the transition, because I have found that there are a lot of types of business
    that you cannot get done unless you are willing to do it with a computer, going online.
    My problem is not with Firefox (I don't use it because it is too slow) , because I use the Seamonkey browser. The problem I now have is that when I try to download some software, I get a message that says I must first uninstall a certain “add on” file, (npfdm.dll.), a "Free Download Manager" file. When I get the list of add ons through the “help” drop down menu, there is “NO” link or any way I can see that will allow me to uninstall this file from the add on list. Therefore, Seamonkey becomes useless to me. Someone please help me with this. Thank you.
