Opatool help sometings not right

These poppups are to be executed by wscript.

windows uses two standard scripting hosts : wscript and cscript.

yours is set for cscript instead of wscript. that means that cscript executes these poppups in notepad and u get gibberish...

to change this, type the following in a command line (run..., cmd) :

//H:wscript

that will change your scripting host to wscript and now your poppups will show correctly.

 

yes. open a cmd prompt and type in this EXACT line :

wscript //H:wscript

then push enter

close cmd prompt and execute opatools. u should notice the difference

 

when u entered "wscript //H:wscript"

did windows say that the standard scripting host has been changed to wscript ?

if not, u must have typed it wrong.
if so, it should do the trick.

 

Might be helpful to include what the output was after you typed in the wscript command

further more : check if the following is true, and if not modify it :

when selected .wsc

do the following :


-the first line : select and click edit
-then type the following :

in command name : "&Generate Type Library" without quotes

in program path : "C:\Windows\system32\RUNDLL32.EXE" "C:\Windows\system32\scrobj.dll",GenerateTypeLib "%1" this time with quotes

then click next

then click on "set selected command as default" at the botom

same for .wsf :

-in command name : "Open &with commandprompt" without quotes

-in program path : "C:\Windows\System32\CScript.exe" "%1" %* with the quotes

click next


and again set as default

 

this is what you should have :

 

so select that line and click edit

type following in command name :

Open &with Command Prompt

type following in Program Path :

"C:\Windows\System32\CScript.exe" "%1" %*

click next
