4) finally click on "' Set this program as default"


for XP just check the e-mail provider and click ok.

There are TWO fixes for this

1. Enable secondary logon under windows

Start, Control Panel, Administrative Tools, Services
Select secondary logon and set to manual and while you are there start the service and you should be fine.

2. Run the program in COMPATIBILITY mode and set for XP SP2 or XP SP3.

Some of todays more up to date security software may turn off the secondary logon if there is only one user on the computer. This is causing a rise in these errors.

yes i know this is an older question but these are the CORRECT answers

Some XP programs incompatable with Vista; you may have to upgrade UFT...had this prob with a lot of my high $ programs....loaded XP on 2nd HDD, and use it for non-Vista compatable programs.

You should be able to use the drivers in program compatibility wizard, set it for XP. If you are experiencing problems with a program that worked correctly on an earlier version of Windows, this wizard helps you select and test compatibility settings that may fix those problems. You can find this by clicking on 'start' -> 'all programs' -> 'accessories' -> 'program compatibility wizard' This is an assumption that you have vista set as windows classic mode. You can set this by right clicking on the start buttion and selecting properties and select the radio button for classic start menu.

perform the following:
type the following three lines in to the Command window:


%SystemDrive%
cd "%ProgramFiles%\TomTom HOME 2"
xulrunner\HOMERuntime.exe -app xul\application.ini


To avoid having to type these lines every time you start HOME:

Right-click your desktop and choose New > Text Document - enter the commands provided above and then save the file as RunTTH.bat
copy this file to the TomTom HOME 2 folder in C:\Program Files (you will require Administrator rights to do this)
in the Start menu, right click on the TomTom HOME 2 icon.
select Properties
in Target, change "C:\Program Files\TomTom HOME 2\TomTomHOME.exe" to "C:\Program Files\TomTom HOME 2\RunTTH.bat”

The icon will change and HOME 2 should now run normally on your PC.
Please note that links like "Send to TomTom device" or "Add to TomTom" won't work because they rely on TomTomHOME.exe (which this workaround by-passes).
A full fix for this error will be implemented in a future HOME update.


NOTE: for 64 bit Vista change the second line of code to:

cd "%ProgramFiles(x86)%\TomTom HOME 2"

check to see whether secondary login service is disabled via services.msc - if it is set it to manual and start it. Problems sould go away - if not unistall and reinstall tomtomHome with this service started.

These are the systems requirements for Windows:

For all TomTom GO, ONE, XL, RIDER and NAVIGATOR 7 devices, the system requirements for Windows are:
Windows 2000, XP of Vista (newest servicepacks required)
Pentium III or higher
256 MB RAM, 512 required
Internet connection (Broadband - DSL/cable/LAN) for downloading updates, maps or services
The TomTom HOME software is a 20MB download requiring 50MB of disk space when installed

If the machine is a Dell with DellControlPoint, open start, run then type msconfig and hit enter. Choose the Startup tab and find the startup item named "Dell" with the Command from "C:\Program Files\Dell\Dell Control Point\Connection Manager\Dell.UCM.exe" and uncheck the box. Hit Ok, then reboot your computer.

Install directly on to C disk not into program files - it should help.

Run the program in Administrator mode with computability set for XP... Ohh & if ya must install then install as Administrator with computability mode set for XP How to link here... lifehacker.com/software/vista/ how-to-run-pre+vista-programs-in-compatibility- mode-251492.php
