Excepting the pRemoteVideoRendererVW returned by the QueryInterface() does not guarantee that it was the remote windows. It sometimes returns the local vid ...Show All

If my suggestion is implemented, I imagine it could use a BooleanFormatInfo class, analogous to the existing NumberFormatInfo and DateTimeFormatI ...Show All

• Windows Forms ClickOnce Fails with "Value does not fall within the expected range."

  I have a ClickOnce-deployed application installed in offline mode across a range of Windows 2000/XP machines on my network. I now receive an 'Application cannot be started. Contact the application vendor.' error message when I attempt to run the application on my development machine. (It works still on the production machines.) I've run mage -cc, and renamed the '2.0' directory to '2.0x' to ignore its presence. Add/Remove Programs still shows it, and clicking Change/Remove pops up a window for a moment, but otherwise does nothing apparent. I've changed the installation path to be a network path instead of a website, and it still fails.
