I have a Vb.Net 2005 application that consists of a main application and a
small application that I have set to run at startup and be running all the
time. I have created an installer within the application that creates a
setup program and the necessary registry entry for starting the application
on startup and it installs fine under XP. When I run the same installer on a
Vista system, the program that runs on startup doesn't work I get the error
'VPAutomatic has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop
working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a
solution is available.' I then get the options Debug and Close program. If I
select Debug, the error 'An error occurred creating the form. Timeout
Expired - the timeout period lapsed prior to completion of the operation or
the server is not responding.' If I close the program and then start it
again by clicking on the .exe file, it then works fine. I have tried
disabling UAP, but still get the problem.
Is it trying to run my program before something else that my program
needs is available? If so, how can I delay the start of the program until
everything else has loaded? Thanks in advance.
