Title: Vista 64 - installer doesn't seem to be working...
Post by Nom on Dec 8^th, 2008, 1:35pm

I've just installed "Desktop Icon Save and Restore" using the 64-bit installer, onto my Vista 64, and it seemed to work fine. I made it to the end of the wizard, and rebooted.

But there's zero extra entries in my Desktop's right click menu ! I'm just seeing the standard View, Sort By, Refresh etc. etc.

Any ideas ? I suspect the DLL hasn't registered for some reason. I can see it in "C:\Program Files (x86)\Desktop Restore" along with the Dkticnsr.rtf file.

You can manually register it with Windows RegSvr32.exe (yes, that's the correct name - even for x64).

Excellent - a quick

regsvr32.exe "C:\Program Files (x86)\Desktop Restore\dkticnsr.dll"

has done the trick ;D
