when i have done my settings in AB (apply or ok) my Emailer tells me "no browser found".
So long AB is opened and i open parallel IE nothing happens - IE do not asks me for "default browser" (it actually is). i have to close AB & IE, reopen IE - set IE for default brwoser and then my emailer will open links in a browser (IE).
grmpf - annoying bug (build 1.08 )
Done settings - no browser found

Re: Done settings - no browser found
You're going to have to be a lot more specific than that...what e-mail program are you using, etc...not even sure what the main problem is. If you didn't make avant your default, then IE should open all the time, and it's actually not avant's fault.

Re: Done settings - no browser found
it doesn't matter what emailer - fact is that IE demands on startup to be set as the "default browser" and that happens always when i did some settings on avant. i dont feel like using regmon (sysinternals) to analyze what realy happens - it might be ugly

Re: Done settings - no browser found
avant is changing values 
and this is not proper
These values have to be **UNTOUCHED** if AVANT has **no options** set to be default browser for that.
and this is not properCode: Select all

Re: Done settings - no browser found
OK Brum, I'm trying to understand you're problem, so correct me if I'm wrong:
You currently have IE as your default browser. It is located on a location other than c:\program files...
Whenever you open and make changes within Avant, your saying that SetValue code starts occuring, which in most cases would be saying 'Don't set protocol values to open in avant, instead use ie, which is in c:\program files...".
You're saying that code should never be run, and BECAUSE it's run and BECAUSE your IE is NOT in program files, then it screws you up.
Correct?

Re: Done settings - no browser found
@bati
pls read the explanation from roth377 (complete right)
IE is NOT in c:\program files\...
IE is actual my default browser (due to some existings bugs in AB)
Avant make changes to the registry concerning the default browser although AB is NOT set as my default nor it has the permission to do so.
This log is from regmon (http://www.sysinternals.com, freeware). Use "filter" with keyword "avant"
I save then the regmon.log and reopen it on Excel to sort it and get the portion above.
AFAIR this happens since the build 8.01
BTW AB has to check out this key to restore IE.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths\IEXPLORE.EXE
Otherwise the keys i listed above to store them temporarely in some ini-file if AB is not set any longer as the default browser.
Each browser has the option to be set as the default browser and to control this on startup. maybe the last idea in storing last settings maybe optional.

Re: Done settings - no browser found
Brumm: I suggest you take some time off from Avant. Hopefully when you get back, anderson has fixed the things you are so worried about. Simply put, as I've said before, you can't expect anderson to fix something simply becuase you have found a problem with it.bug was not fixed
Anderson - please - do something

Re: Done settings - no browser found
@bati
this is definitively no "simple" fault. ::)
this is elementary...
AB is not set as my default browser - and AB changes this settings everytime AB settings are altered (without order).

Re: Done settings - no browser found
hmmm.... this could (maybe) explain the mysterious events on my machine a while ago where IE6 value in XP was being changed to C:\PROGRAM FILES\INTERNET EXPLORERproblem is: Internet Explorer version for XP is located on my machine here: D:\PROGRAM FILES\INTERNET EXPLORER
I dual boot WIN98SE on C: and WINXP on D:
I was going crazy trying to figure out what phantom was causing IE to launch from my WIN98SE installation drive into my current Windows XP session. I always knew when there was a problem in XP because ZoneAlarm would ask for permission as if IE was a new program. When I checked it out, I see two (2) Internet Explorer in ZoneAlarm. One from D: drive and one from C: drive. Of course this is problem when I am working only in Windows XP!

Brumm, since it's been a while since you've posted about this, have you since then contacted Anderson?
If not, I'll let Anderson know about this thread.

Re: Done settings - no browser found
@Brummelchen:
Would a work-around that resets the Registry keys after leaving Avant help? (send a message in this case)
This wouldn't be a bugfix, however, you could use Avant in the known way without needing to restore your Registry.
