AWC.exe - No Disk [SOLVED]

[Good Old Dad]

Hi, all,

 

Running ASC Pro v. 3.4.1 on XP SP3 machine. In the last few weeks, when I do the Registry Fix, I get a pop up with the title "AWC.exe - No Disk" and the message "There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive D:" and three buttons: Cancel, Try Again, and Continue. (Drive D: is my DVD burner). Pushing the continue button repeatedly, perhaps a dozen times, eventually gets things going again. This happens during the "Scanning Invalid Shortcut File" portion of the Registry Fix process.

 

Any suggestions for me? Obviously I can disable the shortcut scan portion in Options, but I'm concerned this is a symptom of something that needs my attention.

Thanks!

Hi Good Old Dad,

 

Can you click on the xx problems found link on the right of Registry Fix to see the details window, and put the items concerning that glitch to Ignore List.

 

The procedure is explained in USAGE of IOBIT PRODUCTS thread in Lounge section.

 

Cheers.

Thanks for the reply. I ran it again, clicking on the "Continue" each time it came up, then went to the list of found items and put them all (just five!) in the ignore list. Then I restarted ASC and re-ran the Registry Fix with the same result as before i.e I had to click on "Continue" multiple times. This time there were only two, different, items in the problems list.

 

So, the short answer is, ASC is still looking for a disk in drive D:, and this doesn't seem to be the fix.

Good Old Dad,

 

It slipped from my eyes, but you are using the old version. ASC 3.4.1

 

Please update to ASC version 3.4.2 and try again.

 

You can find the download links in ASC 3 version 3.4.2 is released [uPDATED Jan 09]

 

Cheers.

Thanks, that did it. I'm a little surprised that I didn't get the update sooner, even when I clicked on "Check for Update" it said I had the latest version. Unexpected behaviour from the (paid for) PRO version, it seems to me.

 

Anyway, thanks!
