[ RadSafe ] Rad Toolbox on Windows 7 ??

[Jaro Franta]

Thanks Richard,

I did realise that the problem might be that I installed Windows 7 onto a computer with Vista, that the Rad Toolbox was on -- so I un-installed and re-installed the program.

Unfortunately the problems persisted.

Will have to inform the ORNL folks.....

I the mean time, I still have Rad Toolbox on an XP computer at the office, so will need to hang on to that for a while....

Did you install Windows 7 onto a computer that already had XP or Vista installed that your Rad Toolbox was on?  If so, their are probably file association mis-matches and simply re-installing the program may fix the problem.

I haven't installed Win 7 yet, so can't duplicate the problem, but glancing at the source code, it seems probable that is is the problem.   Hope this helps.
