Hi,

I get a Microsoft.Net error when launching config. This prevents me from making any changes in config at all.

See attached logs.

Pressing details I get the following info.

See the end of this message for details on invoking
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.

For example:

<configuration>
    <system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.

    Hello and thanks for the report

    Some questions...
    Have you ever installed or used a Hauppauge remote control? (I ask because that's what the error seems to relate to.)
    Are you running config with administrative privileges?
    Are you able to provide a screenshot of the contents of registry key "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\Hauppauge WinTV Infrared Remote"? (If you have no idea what I'm talking about here, just say so. ;) )

    Hey, thanks for the swift response.

    I previously had a Hauppauge Remote control and tv card installed, I have since removed both and have uninstalled the software.
    Yes running as admin.

    I believe this is what you meant o_O

    No problem. :)

    Okay, so I reckon the removing of the remote control software is what has caused this. It doesn't seem to have been removed cleanly.

    I believe this is what you meant o_O
    Mmmm, maybe... but due to the way you cropped the screenshot, I'm not sure if you're looking at the right key.

    I have the Hauppauge remote software installed, and my registry (Windows XP) shows:

    Okay, thanks.

    If you're sure that you've removed the remote control software then I would delete that key, and that should solve the problem.
