Agh, tried with updated and edited instructions. The program still dies when I try and apply preference changes.

[Sranshaft]

Ahh,...the joys of debugging in 3rd person. Other than what I've suggested before I don't know what to tell you. If you use a new folder does it do the same thing? What happens if you delete the whole Four13_Designs folder in the Local SettingsApplication Data folder?

Other than that, I'm at a loss as to why the new version isn't going as smoothly as the previous ones.

[Relativity_17]

It was failing because I had disabled my floppy drive (A:). Re-enabling the drive seems to fix it.

[Sranshaft]

Strange that. I was sure the problem was with the actual saving of the preferences. Everything appears to work correctly here so I'm not sure where the problem is now. I'll throw together a new version which will spit out a error log for me to pin point the problem.

[thelocaluk]

I have had no troubles installing version 0.5 over 0.3. Great program Sranshaft, I look forward to any future updates

My floppy drive is also disabled, because I dont own one.... and dont want one.

@Sranshaft
Could you fix this?

[Dania]

Any intention of supporting USB connections?

[Sranshaft]

@Dania: USB drives are already supported. I added the feature in on version 0.4. Go into preferences and make sure "Removable" is selected under the Drives tab.

I'll take that back, I found a problem. The application doesn't start on windows start up even though I have it selected in the preferences to do so.

[Sranshaft]

@thelocaluk: DiscMounter should place a shortcut in the startup folder if you select the feature. I decided to go this route because I didn't want to play around with the registry - though that's always a possibility.

I'll add that in to the next update and see if it works for you. New update should be available shortly. I've just finished streamlining the code a little and putting in icon positioning.

[metroid87706]

This looks great. I have to get .Net Framework, but I'll post my opinions after I use it.

EDIT: Ah, same error, when applying settings.
I also get an error quitting, saving icon positions, everything!
I think you need to look at your code again.

[Sranshaft]

Instead of just saying, "You need to look at your code again", why not tell me what the errors say? I know about the settings button and no, I do not know what is causing this. Everything here works fine so it's hard to test for errors on that part when no errors appear... As for the quitting error, it's the first I've heard of it and I haven't had any trouble with it. Also, include the particulars of your computer, things like your operating system, language and whether or not you have active desktop enabled / icons on the desktop.

Get back to me with error codes and I'll see what I can do. I'll also be releasing a debug version for those having trouble with errors popping up so can get a better look at what is breaking down and where at.

[SirSmiley]

Works great for me. Nice job.

I'm not running the most recent updates to .Net but, .Net 2 is fully up-to-date.

Just one feature request but, not anything pressing. Is it possible to add an option for aligning the drives to the right like in Styler?

Think I've got some source code for this either in vbs or .net. Let me know if you want it.

Great to see plenty of updates
I manually placed a shortcut to the startup folder because its just not having it on my computer.

[Sranshaft]

@SirSmiley: Great to hear everything is working on your end. It's a good day when things go right for a change. Sure thing on the request! If you have the code, send it on over. I should be able to modify my icon placing coding but if you have some already available it makes it just that easier.

@thelocaluk: Thanks, I try to fix things as soon as possible. Since the way I've got it adding itself to the startup isn't working, I'll go ahead and add in a registry option as well.

New version should be available tomorrow. I've got some movie watching to do with the wife tonight.

[Sranshaft]

New version is now available! Check the first page for the download.

Version 0.7 - November 7, 2007

• Added option to use either shortcut in startup folder or the registry for auto-run when Windows starts
  
• Added option to place newly mounted drives on the right side of desktop (requested by SirSmiley)
  
• Added in some error logging with regards to saving preferences
  
• Fixed a bug regarding save icon positions
  
• Fixed a bug regarding renaming Audio CDs - it now should store the name of the audio CD thus stopping DiscMounter from polling CDDB every second

[SirSmiley]

For some reason I didn't see the Save Icon position before which kind of makes my request redundant.

Either way the right click feature isn't working for me and I'm now getting the attached Exception when I try to save the Icon Position or quit.

Attached File(s)

•  error.txt (4.29K)
  Number of downloads: 19

[Relativity_17]

I get this error as well, both on saving icon position and quitting.

just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.
