I don't speak dutch, but it looks like you're somehow trying to run the app in the Internet zone. How exactly are you running it? Try running it as administrator (right click, Run as administrator).

I was running the app from my server (Internet zone??). So I copied it to my local computer, and now it works! Thanks! Now i've got a question, is it possible to change the order of the strip "pictures and videos", so i get videos first and then pictures?

Aha, that would indeed be in the internet zone!

Unfortunately, the default menu items cannot be reordered

re: New util: MC Menu Mender

I have an install (or two) of MyTV which I uninstalled, but now have a screwed up MC Menu.

Is there an easy way back to the default settings?

Can you drag the broken links from the custom strips into the bin (try dragging the empty space above the link text)? (can't check myself, at work right now) If not, try overwriting the links with new ones from the list at the bottom, and then dragging the new link back into the bin. When you've got rid of all of them, the strips won't show up in MC anymore.

I'll make sure that this is handled gracefully in the next version.

I can't drag the empty spaces or write over them. Can I delete them in the registry?

Ok, have to do it the hard way

Delete the following key (and all its subkeys - this is from memory, so it might not be exact - delete anything with Advent in it):
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\Media Center\Extensibility\Categories\Advent

You may also need to delete the keys under (i.e. don't delete this acual key, just the children):
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\Media Center\Start Menu\Applications

Alternatively, you could reinstall MyTv, fix the menu, then uninstall it again

It's designed specifically for Vista. Maybe extract it from the zip folder to your desktop and give it a go.

re: New util: MC Menu Mender

This may not pertain directly to this plugin, but hopefully someone can help....Is there a way to edit what the text of the icon is? For myTV, the main icon is labled "Main Menu"...I would like to renam that to MyTV or something. Can this be done?

Also, myTV added it's own strip. Can this plugin remove that strip? I'd like to get rid of it, and only have the main menu icon for myTV in the TV & Movie strip.

Thanks!

re: New util: MC Menu Mender

It doesn't rename it, I think if you changed the registry key that is added at installation to myTV it should work, but I haven't done it.

As for hiding the strip, you can do that through - Tasks & Settings - General - Program Library - Edit Start Menu (or something along those lines) and unchecking myTV.
