Is it possible to prevent MCE from launching when hitting the Green Button and use it for MP insted ?

Windows MCE

Or do i need to reformat and install another OS.

Find mptray from this site and install, this will let the green button control mediaportal, I then disable the windows services which are to do with media center just to be safe.

    Extract to Program files\Team-mediaportal\mediaportal folder, hit the install bat.

    I then click the exe. file to run.

    Yep, it doesn't work here either. I've installed it as instructed. the MPTray process is running, but MCE still oopens (with no MP) when pressing Green button, even though i tried to remove the MCE Tray app from startup in the system registry.

    I've done what is suggested in the first link you've provided (as i'm running XP MCE 2005).

    Pressing the "Green Button" now no longer starts MCE, but it still doesn't start MP even though I have install MPTray-Mod and have the MPTray.exe process running. Instead, pressing the "Green Button" now put my system into Standby

    Any ideas?

    100% my bad - as expected :) So, I had disabled the Windows Update service. Not a wise move, until MP all installed and working nicely. The reason it failed is because DotNetFrameworkChecker.cs looks in Registry HKLM SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\NET Framework Setup\\NDP for v4/v4.0 AND v3.5. W10 has V4.0 but not 3.5. MP installer...

    It is present, but not with that name. It is called Scheduler, viz: Interesting. I had never noticed that when the "command" is "ACTION", the "cmdproperty" is the actual window id, but it makes sense that it is. Try this for yourself. First backup your working profile for the remote, then in the "Mapping" panel make a change to...

    hm, weird. it can't access the file because its in use by another process... Wonder what that other one is. Can you try excluding the recording folder of all background processes?
