Hello,
we have following Problem:
I make a empty Thinapp package: only the CMD Dos Box.
On one PC we can´t see anything of drive C:\.
We make dir and the directory keeps empty.
Wen we change the directory to c:\Windows "c:\cd windows" the directory path change to C:\Windows.
So we can acces directoty´s on the Harddrive but we can´t browse them.
In the Thinapp Pakage ini there is no special Isolation mode "WriteCopy" is standard, just Build and Package an emtpy Pakage.
Any ideas? I dont want to reinstall the PC.....
Thinapp Version 4.7.1 and 4.7.2
The PC is a Windows XP Sp3 compelte patched by MS...
Can you, please, attach Package.ini and %drive_C%\##Attributes.ini files from your project directory?
Hi,
In Simple words, If the requirement is that the thinapped application needs to read and write to physical runtime system where it is running then keep the Isolation mode to "Merged".
If the requirement is that the thinapped application should not Write to the physical system, keep a "WriteCopy".
What is your requirement?
The default isolation mode is "Merged".
Could you please change the DirectoryIsolation mode in package.ini to "Merged"? Rebuild the package and see if it suits your requirement, Please?

I have the Standard Isoltion Mode, here is the Package.ini.
The Problem is that i have to see the drive C:\ .
I think it hase nothing to do with the Isolation mode becouse on other PC´s i can browse the Harddisk

You can Attach files into this post and you don't have to copy&paste test into this posts, so they don't look ugly as your looks now
Are you sure you have pasted all content of Package.ini, because there are missing couple sections?
You didn't mentioned that you can browse C:\ drive on other computer or you did?
Try to delete sandbox on computer where you cannot browse C:\ drive.
Let us know.
Yes i can browes the Disk on other PC´s.
I already have deleted the Sandbox on this PC and i also have made a new Thinapp Pakage with oder Thinapp Versions : 4.7.1.
The same Problem.
I have also deleted the Virus Scan on the PC but the same error occours
Hmm...interesting. Can you, please, just create _empty_ virtualized application with cmd.exe debug entry point? And try browse disk using this _empty_ application?
I already have tried this. I have just copied the A43 in the Pakage directory so that i have another test tool in the Thinapp.
The Pakage.ini comes from this Empty Pakage.
The same error with this.
IMHO problem is at the particular computer, just reinstall it
Thats not the answer that i want
But ok i just have wondered if someone else has this problem and has solved it by reinstall the .net ore something...
If I have time, I would look at this issue using Process Monitor and I would look what problem is there when I browse local disk
Are we going to look into it?
No thanks, i think reinstall is the faster method for me.
