| Alulaq2, Please forgive my delayed reply. I only check this site every couple weeks or so. If you haven't found it yet, the solution that worked for me was to set the Ecco exe run permission 'as Administrator'. I've seen the thread reference Registry permissions and my error was about running the exe but both are solved by Admin privileges. Good Luck! |

| Hi rbwISE, I've been hit with a windows update and now my previously running fine plain vanilla Ecco32.exe 4.01 (supposedly 64-bit) wont run. I get the message "Unhandled Registry Error (CFO)". Im on a 64bit Lenovo, and just installed Windows 10 update to W10 Build 1903. What do I need EXACTLY to get Ecco to run? Do I need 4.6.6 64bit wrapper? If so, where do I get it and how do I install it? Is there a more recent Ecco, or do I need some extensions, or? Alulaq2 |

| While this thread is about 3 years old, a W10 update (most likely...), has struck again. But, Thankfully! (to all involved in this Q&A ), Updating the Properties as recommended solved the problem ('Unable to run command' when running Ecco). I'm running the 4.01 (32bit) under the 4.6.6 64bit wrapper; on a W10 21H2 Build 19044.2728 w/ 64 Gb RAM. This workstation (Alienware M51 laptop) is my base analysis & data processing machine but I synchronize to a Dell XPS-15 that is the mobile tool. It's all worked pretty well with the workload at about 9:1 on the M51 to the XPS. I haven't added much but Magic to the EccoPro setup and until this event, haven't had any trouble. I migrated an InfoSelect database to Ecco around 1993 or '92. Nothing was as nimble as InfoSelect but Ecco was flexible enough to adapt. The calendar and project timekeeping functions added so much, I've never looked back. |

| 4 | Everything eccoMAGIC / Issues, Comments, and Questions / My ECCO won't scroll in Windows 11 on: 03/19/23 at 13:43:19 |

| Anybody seen this? Actually the question is, does anyone have the answer? I've used ECCO since about 1995, on my first PC, running Windows 95, can't live without it. I had to get a new computer, the old one (still running Windows 7) was showing signs of impending collapse. Every OS I've had would run ECCO fine. The new one runs Windows 11. It's custom built, seems like a perfectly good machine, except that in ECCO, the scroll wheel on the mouse doesn't make it scroll. Everything else scrolls fine, just ECCO won't. I'm not gonna quit using ECCO, but I have to scroll with the scroll bar, which is painful. I don't know what possessed Microsoft to make scrollbars so narrow and thus so difficult to grab with the mouse pointer but who knows? Anyway, anyone know how to make scrolling work in Windows 11? |

| Yes. Use the Slang extension (free), and auto-sort by the date column. [Right click on column header, select persistent sort & choose option (up/down/off)] |

| I did find this site, not sure if it is dangerous. Also wondering if any version of Ecco works in Windows 11? https://eccopro-32.software.informer.com/ |

| I purchased a license several years ago, but my old computer died and I really want to re-install Ecco ... and am concerned about spamware sites. Is there any malware-free legitimate download site? Mike |

| For years I have been adding items to a folder and they remain in the same position where I put them. For several days now when I leave the folder and come back, I find the new items moved to the top of the item list. I want them to remain where I had put them. What can I do to turn off this behavior? I use the Scratch Notepad to open my folders. There are no additional columns used nor did I use the sort function. If I sort the view then Scratch always sorts from then on. How do I turn off sorting in the Scratch folder? Nicholas Geti |
