Registry Mechanic v.2.1 Trial (WXP-Pro)

[Crypton]

Hi, I am having a prob getting the trial version to run. I installed, reboot my pc, tried to run the program but it pops up saying:

Run-time error '453':

Can't find DLL entry point Environ in ArmAccess.dll

Anyone know how to fix this or is it something that just is not goin to run on my pc?

[Crypton]

ok, ive sent a help request both here and to the support area which i have a report ticket #, this was done the same day i first posted here, obviously im not going to get much help here, so disreguard my question as I have already purchased another registry product.

[dwalsh]

I would recommed not using Registry Mechanic, my computer has not booted in Normal Mode since I used the product. Good luck.

[okwhen]

I sure an glad I read this post because I was just about to subscribe. But I guess it is like all the rest of the software out there, a trash bag has a better warranty.

[tom_keefer]

I've been using Registry Mechanic (on XP-Home) since April of 2003 and have had absolutely zero problems with the app. Actually, it's a pretty decent program. /images/forums/icons/smile.gif

Hi dwalsh

Sorry to hear you have been experiencing technical problems with Registry Mechanic.
This may be due to you computer configuration.

Please direct any technical issues to this product here</font color=red> (http://www.winguides.com/support/submit.php?ref=1-2-4&custom_Product=Registry+Mechanic&subject=Product+Support&guide=regmech><font)

[okwhen]

dwalsh, I guess that is the answer, one member likes it and another tell you something you already know. I think with this kind of support I too will pass on this one.

[report_2]

I have never tried the product but I am sure that there is nothing wrong with it. I have been visiting this site since it was first offered and I have not seen complaints.

When it comes to tweaking a computer there are no 'magic pills'. Everything is by cause and effect.

Without ever trying the product I can be certain that the installation of it does not automatically set the machine to start up in a mode other than Normal.

As far as support goes. Well, maybe the response time could be improved.

I have never checked but are there even usage instructions on the trash bag box?

[okwhen]

I think you answered the question yourself. You have never used the product, so why would you provide any comments? I see that you are a guru and from what I know about gurus they do not speculate. Regarding trash bag instructions, I think based on your response, the only instruction you need to be aware of on the box, is the one about placing it over your head!

[report_2]

Thank you for thinking about me and I hope things get brighter for you.

[DanK]

Thats uncalled for okwhen, please play nicely.

I think we all have a grim view about people who use insults on these kind of forums

Now I have sent both you boys a private email and hope this is the end of it. I use the term boys because, Dank thinks I am here to play and tom_keefer thinks he is talking to one of his play mates. You both seem to think that because you have been here for a while that you can do and say what ever you think is right. Not that way boys, the information and help you provide others and the occasional thanks is all their is. As I stated if you go back and read the posting, what I stated are the facts. My reference was directed to the warranty not the instructions. And if you are going to try and come back with a smart come back, at least get it right. As I stated, you two need to calm down and directed these childish comments to each other and stop posting just to increase your status. Your status is based on your knowledge not on the number of times you post.

[DanK]

I do not appreciate the way I have been spoken to by yourself.

You’re obviously a very obnoxious person with nothing better to do with your time than come to forums and start silly arguments.

If you feel fit to reply to this message in a malicious manner I will do us all a favour and ban you from these boards.

Up to you

Okwhen,

The status' are derived from how may posts have been replied to and not necessarily a measure of knowledge.

It does, however, make a statement of how much an individual is willing to help.

In this thread, the original poster's problem was resolved. They chose an alternative product.

Then yourself expresses an opinion about a product that you have not yet tried either.

What was the point of your addition? Was it to disuade others from trying the product offered by the makers of this board? It had no positive or helpful connotation to it.

Your continued bantor helps nobody either.

This board's posts, like any other forum board, are written by real people. It is easy to think otherwise.

I respect you as a person and expect you to have similar respect for me regardless of whether you agree or disagree with me. So it is true for the product discussed in this thread.

[okwhen]

Lets take each state you made one at a time.

1, “The status' are derived from how may posts have been replied to and not necessarily a measure of knowledge. It does, however, make a statement of how much an individual is willing to help.”

Why would anyone reply to a technical post without knowledge? And replying without knowledge is known as chatting. Is this a chat room or a technical forum?

2. “In this thread, the original poster's problem was resolved. They chose an alternative product.

Then yourself expresses an opinion about a product that you have not yet tried either.

What was the point of your addition? Was it to disuade others from trying the product offered by the makers of this board? It had no positive or helpful connotation to it.“

I have never posted an opinion on a technical forum. What I stated was facts based on technical information I have read or have direct knowledge of. I was not aware I had to endorse any products to be a member. Please, correct me if I am wrong and I will remove myself as a member. My statement was directed at the warranty not the product. As far as I am aware, just about all software carries the same warranty, little to none at all, again correct me if I am wrong. I was not aware I need your approval to reply to another members posting that used other product. If you will, please make every unaware person like me aware that permission is need from a Guru to reply too address another member on the board.

3. “Your continued bantor helps nobody either.”

If you read some of my post you would discover I have helped some and some member agree with me on some technical issues and posting methods.

4. “This board's posts, like any other forum board, are written by real people. It is easy to think otherwise.

I respect you as a person and expect you to have similar respect for me regardless of whether you agree or disagree with me. So it is true for the product discussed in this thread.”

Totally misted your first line, however will address your second. Respect you, I do not even know you. As far as disagree, I have already answered my country's call to served in the military to protect your right to disagree. No, don't thank me, my country call on me to serve and I answered the call as a proud American. And NO I do not respect any product. I have enjoyed and liked using some products, but, to date, have never respected one.

[report_2]

Thanks for taking the time to respond and good luck.

[okwhen]

Dank, I am not even going to comment on you immature reply. I will say this, I will stand behind everything I posted in a court of law if need be. So, if this site will obtain an injunction, I will be mort than willing to comply, until I legally address the issue. I think this is a self motivating act you have taken solely responsibility for. If you continue abusing you authority, that is if you even have any, I will request this site remove any authority you may have. As I have stated, all I insist on is this verbal attach on me stop.

Please reread the WinGuides.com Privacy Policy. You may discover, you are responsibility for what you say and not this site unless you have official authority. Therefor, you can be held responsible for your words. And the terms and conditions you set forth of my membership is not legal to my knowledge. I am sure this site will not uphold your actions nor do I think this site is interested in anymore comments on this matter. As I have already stated, email me direct and stop posting this bunk. You leave me with no alternative, but, too reply when you post in a public forum. I have a right too rebut your statements.

Now, if you feel fit to reply, what ever that may means, make it to the point, I am growing tired of a obvious over controlling person with the need to overpower someone. If you haven't noticed, I will not feed you need.

I thought from your reply that was the end of it, but no, here we go again. You read it again I already have. And if you are referring to private e mail, what do you think they are intended purpose is, love notes. Don't for one minute think you can start posting and quoting rules too me after the way you have written. It is far to late to take the high moral road with that dun you posted. Now for the last time, leave me alone and go play with your other buddy.

[DanK]

Please tell me, what do you expect me to do? Sit back and watch as one by one you start arguments with other members, including myself? No, I didn’t think so. You seem to believe it’s not OK for us to defend our selves while you are issuing these verbal attacks...you are the bully here my friend.

Do you think I come here to fight and have petty squabbles with people the other side of the world? I'm glad to say my life is abit more interesting than that.

Don't get me wrong, you do seem like a knowledgeable person, one which the forums could benefit from but it can't work while you've got your the whole world is against me attitude.

Simple question, do you wish to stay at these boards? If yes, fine, just don’t take every reply as an attempt to insult you. I can safely say all our members are here to try and help, give sugestions, opinions or advice. This helps keep the forums a success.

You just don't get it.
You have a bad attitude and it shows.
I, for one, don't like it.
I no longer care what you are typing but care only about the attitude you express within your text.
"You can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink"
I give up.
This will be my final post on this thread.

[okwhen]

OK, lets start from you first response to my posting on 01/23/04 Love of the Registry Hacks. Who care if you Dank fail to see what I was trying to say. Other did, so obvious you are the one having the communication breakdown. Now did you back off and give me a little room. No, your language was that of a teacher scolding a school boy. And if you think otherwise, then you do have a problem with the English language and again that is not my problem. Right there if you read the guide lines and I quote :Please, no messages that harass, insult, belittle, or threaten another member.” Talking to an adult as if they were a child is belittling. And don't forget that classic statement :You’re obviously a very obnoxious person with nothing better to do with your time than come to forums and start silly arguments.
If you feel fit to reply to this message in a malicious manner I will do us all a favour and ban you from these boards.” Now, how many of the etiquette rules were bashed all the heck.

Report_2 thought that he was going to interject and make a funny, and he was so totally involved with his joke that he completely missed what was said. Now were are you, I'll tell you, talking with him and planning your next move. Anyone reading the posts and following them could tell this.

Let's face it, based on the "Joining Forums and Forum Etiquette" and I quote :The major purpose of a forum is sharing knowledge. If you have never used the product, how can anyone be consider to have any knowledge of the product. And the he goes on too say and I quote “Without ever trying the product I can be certain that the installation of it does not automatically set the machine to start up in a mode other than Normal.” If anyone actually believe this statement is true, I would recommend a chat board and not a technical board.

Now I could go on, however, if this do not ring a bell then it is hopeless. And again, that facts are you are intelligent so therefor understanding is not the problem. Bias is what come to my mind. And I stand behind the facts and I believe anyone reading the posts will derive the same conclusion

Now prove me wrong regarding the bias, go provide someone with technical knowledge and I will do the same. Did I mention that I am a disabled veteran with a Engineering degree and plenty of time on my hands.

This is really what you think? If you do then your way off the mark. Despite what you may think no one here is out to get you and you have not been singled out. That is the truth but I can't change the way you perceive things.
If I hadn't have stepped in then one of the other Moderators would have and you would be having the same disagreement with them. So how could it be a personal attack?

This is the most sensible thing you have posted so far and I fully agree with it.

We welcome your knowledge and I’m sure you can help numerous people with a variety of problems. When we all get along and work together it’s a nicer environment and more problems can be resolved. In return we get more members continuing to visit the forums and help keep our high standards.

[okwhen]

You, just cannot simply state the facts and give your viewpoint can you? You statement, I am just a concerned moderator and my only interest in intervening is too save me from myself and save the site from me. What about the main substance of my posting, thats right, just post the parts that you think can be easily manipulated. If that is not bias then what is, selective selection. This has always been one sided and I stand behind my statement that you are power hungry and I will not feed your need. And if you do not possess the ability required too intelligently discuss something and produce proof to support your statements, then, that it is called babble on a technical site.

Yes, why don't we have an impartial person review all the threads and present us with their findings? I am sure we could find someone mutually acceptable. I will be more than happy to abide by their findings. This site has my real name and email listing so I am not just here under a hot mail account using an alias. One of the new members may be interested in lending us a hand. What do you say too, going in halves and purchasing a new member, the registry tool that this thread was intended for in the first place for services rendered.


But the simplest way would be to review each thread one at a time. In this way we would both be on the same page in real time. But let me guess, you have already concocted a conclusion and simply think you can wave me off by implying that I am just a person the can not be reasoned with. Now ask yourself this, I have suggested more that one valid way to resolve this and you just keep passing them by, Why? I sent you a private email and a way to resolve this between you and me and you decided to take it public. You posted that you have better things to do with your time and would like nothing better than to bring closure. However, every opportunity to obtain closer you start a new thread. I think you are very closure to proving one of my points, that their is more too this than meet the eye. I visit many sites, read their post and sometimes post. I have no wish to involve myself beyond that so basically I have no invested interest here or any other site, Now I ask again, what are you trying to accomplish by keeping this thread alive and not going private. That right I keep forgetting, these poor helpless defenseless people on this site need your protection from that horrific statement I made. Sorry to use an American phrase, however, give me a break.

Are you trying to insult my intelligence by leading me to believe that this is the most horrific statement made on this site? And without a moderator such as yourself, I would single handily be the downfall of this site, unchecked. I think it is time for you to perform a reality check and come back from that mental vacation your on.

Please save that sales pitch for when you are selling something other wise it look, well, out of place. And one thin I have learned in life is, that the world doesn't revolve around anyone.

[DanK]

You say this has always been one sided? Are you being serious?? In this thread alone you've attempted to cause a nuisance of yourself with tom_keefer, report_2 and myself. So you think this is one-sided, I’m beginning to laugh at your statements.

If you want to find a neutral member to look over this thread go right ahead. Lets look back how it started. Poster wants advice on Registry Mechanic. My first post was to advise to email any queries to the product support team. My second was to warm you of insulting members, which you didn’t like and kicked things off. Its there in writing.

Your are 100% right, I do not think you can be reasoned with, you will go all out to argue and argue when there is no need.
In reply to:

<blockquote><font class="small">In reply to:</font><hr>

<hr></blockquote>
Now this statement cracks me up, what the hell are you talking about? Look around the forums, how many arguments or bad mannered members do you see, please tell me. You’re the most disrespectful member I’ve ever seen at these forums but you think your posts shouldn’t make a Moderator sit up and take notice. Please. I suggest you take a long hard look at the link Report_2 has posted, you will learn a hell of alot

I wait with anticipation for your reply. After your reply I will be closing this thread and will decide what action to take.

Crypton Registry Mechanic v.2.1 Trial (WXP-Pro)
(New Member)
01/17/04 19:01

This is the facts and each and every word can be verified by referencing the actual post.

Three new new member aka newbie are in a post. The first newbie Crypton requested help for Registry Mechanic v.2.1 Trial. He then returns to his original post five days latter. He cancelled his request for help, because, with the lack of support, he had decided on another product. Dwalsh entered the thread and recommends that Crypton not use the product. Okwhen entered the thread, displayed concerns, because he was considering subscribing. After reading the thread he knew that was probably a bad idea based on the lack of support. After the four threads tom_keefer entered and assured okwhen that he has encountered zero problems using it on XP home edition since April 2003. Dank entered the thread about four minutes later. He displayed sorry and provided Dwalsh with a directing link to support.
NOTE:
However just like Crypton, Dwalsh had requested help with Registry Mechanic on 01/22/04 with zero responses. Dwalsh entered the thread to advise Crypton not to use the product and was not seeking support.

Okwhen reenters the thread two days latter. After reading tom_keefer and Dank thread, he responded to dwalsh. He states one member likes the product “tom_keefer and the other member Dank, informs you of something you already knew. okwhen also stated, with that kind of support he too will pass.

Report_2 enters the thread and replies to okwhen. He states he has never used the product, but, is sure there is nothing wrong with it. He states he has been visiting the site since the product was first offered and has never seen a complaint. He go on to give probable cause for the errors Crypton and dwalsh was encountering. He then informs okwhen that maybe the supports responses time could be improved on. Report_2 then responded to okwhen comment, “But I guess it is like all the rest of the software out there, a trash bag has a better warranty.” However report_2 response is ”I have never checked but are there even usage instructions on the trash bag box? ”

NOTE: The trash bag was in reference to the warranty, not the instructions on the box, how to use them.

okwhen response to report_2 response. He stated, if you have never used the product, then why are you speculating on it. okwhen then responded to report_2 coy responded with “Regarding trash bag instructions, I think based on your response, the only instruction you need to be aware of on the box, is the one about placing it over your head! “

The next day okwhen receives three replies
.
Report_2 replied, “Thank you for thinking about me and I hope things get brighter for you.”

Dank “Thats uncalled for okwhen, please play nicely.
I think we all have a grim view about people who use insults on these kind of forums “


Tom_keefer “You're way out of line, okwhen. If you wish to be involved in this forum you need to grow some manners. Accompanied with a said expression.

The next day,

okwhen replies “Now I have sent both you boys a private email and hope this is the end of it. I use the term boys because, Dank thinks I am here to play and tom_keefer thinks he is talking to one of his play mates. You both seem to think that because you have been here for a while that you can do and say what ever you think is right. Not that way boys, the information and help you provide others and the occasional thanks is all their is. As I stated if you go back and read the posting, what I stated are the facts. My reference was directed to the warranty not the instructions. And if you are going to try and come back with a smart come back, at least get it right. As I stated, you two need to calm down and directed these childish comments to each other and stop posting just to increase your status. Your status is based on your knowledge not on the number of times you post.”


And so on and so on. Now, if the thread is read without emotions and just for content, obviously a disagreement occurred between report_2 and okwhen. And the facts are, he should of never entered the thread without having any knowledge of the product. All of you that believe otherwise are just what I said you are. A gang without cause and with absolutely no foundation.

I entered a post because I was considering subscribing to this site. After looking around, reading the site requirements, checking out the incentives and discounts on products, I became interested. My next step was to check the reviews on the software and decide if purchasing it with the discount was a good deal. Then all I found was two members that could not receive any support, and welcoming committee of three from hell. Now, after looking at it from my point of view, ”A new members”, do any of you three wish to continue this conversation with management? Because, If I can not at least receive an acknowledgment from each of you that this is water under the bridge. I will contact management and ask for a review of this matter.


Hope to resolve,

okwhen

How about now!
