Did you do a clean install of Macro Scheduler onto Vista, or is this an upgraded PC?

If you have upgraded your PC to Vista and already had Macro Scheduler installed on it you may have problems depending on how Macro Scheduler was installed. The best thing is to install Macro Scheduler afresh doing a full, new install. If you have existing scripts, back them and your macros.dat file up somewhere and then import them using File/Import after you have installed.

There are no known problems running Macro Scheduler under Vista so long as you have done a full install. The only issues that can arise are if upgrading from a previous version of Macro Scheduler, or when upgrading Windows to Vista on a machine running a previous version of Macro Scheduler.

Both Vista and Macrosheduler are fresh installed. I have reinstalled macro scheduler but still the same Error.
