Unable to open AIM+ under a new XP user name

Post by Kev »

Everytime I create a new user account in Win XP, I have trouble opening AIM+ when logged in to the new account. It asked me to reinstall AIM+, instead, I copied the AIM+ values from the registry to the new account's registry file, since it's already installed.

This is an interesting point, I'm surprised nobody else has brought it up yet.

You know how some programs ask you if you'd like to install the program for 'Current User' or 'All Users'? AIM+ installs for the current user, only, right now.

In the future, I might have AIM+ offer you that same choice, or simply install for 'All Users' instead of just the current user.

But your solution of copying the registry values over should work. Re-installing AIM+ for the new user should also work just fine.
