If you're on Win95/98/ME, then you'll need to restart. If you're on Windows NT/2000/XP then no.

You didn't download all the controls. Some of them haven't been downloaded by anyone yet.

You need all 3 of these.

The experts on my VB forum say that if you have the right versions of the controls, this problem shouldn't happen. I'm really trying to figure out what's going on. Replace your history viewer with the attached one. It *should* ignore the error and keep going anyway.

They say on the forum that this should work:

If your windows directory is C:\WINDOWS, then extract and run the batch file, otherwise edit the batch file by replacing the instances of C:|WINDOWS with your windows directory.

I think Big-O should make another forum just for Master Jedi's History Replacement Viewer.

I have a problem. I extracted the .exe from the zip and now it wants the activation code again. I forget the code and I forget my Neopets Username and Password and I don't want to sign up again. Can You PM Me The Code?

That works if i run it from a different folder but as soon as i put it in the AIM+ folder it does the same thing as before

The problem was the manifest file? As far as I knew, this was only occurring on Windows 98 and ME machines, which don't even know what manifest files are for???

Oh yeah...when I finish with my skin, there won't be any need for a manifest file, so that won't be in the next version.
