Re: Problems with v0.5

The BHO is not loaded so it cannot work. Go to the "Manage add-ons" window and verify that "Companion.JS BHO3 is not disabled.

Re: Problems with v0.5

You should have 2 add-ons for Companion.JS :

* Companion.JS
* Companion.JS BHO

It looks like you have only one enabled for Companion.JS. If the second is not present, try to install Companion.JS again to ahve Companion.JS BHO registered correctly.

Re: Problems with v0.5

I install companion many times, but Companion.JS BHO never appear on add-ons manager.
Maybe there are some way to install BHO manually ?
Thanks allot!

Re: Problems with v0.5

Are you running with admin rights ? I'll send you the registry entries you can check to verify if the registration is ok or not.

Re: Problems with v0.5

Hi,

To check if the BHO registration has been correctly done, you can check the following registry keys :

For the COM component the following keys are needed :
* HKCR/JSDebug.BHOIEInstance.1
* HKCR/JSDebug.BHOIEInstance

For the BHO registration, the following key is required :
* HKLM/SOFTWARE/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/Explorer/Browser Helper Objects/{ADDEE521-F1CC-4B89-8C88-B2CF625B9163}

Please can you confirm these keys are present ?

And for the HKLM part, I have this:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Browser Helper Objects\{ADDEE521-F1CC-4B89-8C88-B2CF625B9163}

To change the status of an add-on or to update an add-on, follow these steps:

   1. Start Internet Explorer.
   2. On the Tools menu, click Manage Add-ons.
   3. Click the name of the add-on.
   4. Use one of the following methods:
          * Click Update ActiveX to replace the add-on with the current version. This option is not available for all add-ons.
          * To enable an add-on, click Enable, and then click OK.
          * To disable an add-on, click Disable, and then click OK.

You may have to restart Internet Explorer for the changes to take effect after you enable or disable an add-on.

Re: Problems with v0.5

I see.

The problem with Companion.JS is not caused by it being disabled. However, restarting the browser once more did the trick.

Re: Problems with v0.5

Hi,

Sorry for the delay...

For people having the BHO not loaded, here are the registry keys that are created during install :

Code:

HKCR
{
    JSDebug.BHOIEInstance.1 = s 'Companion.JS BHO'
    {
        CLSID = s '{ADDEE521-F1CC-4B89-8C88-B2CF625B9163}'
    }
    JSDebug.BHOIEInstance = s 'Companion.JS BHO'
    {
        CLSID = s '{ADDEE521-F1CC-4B89-8C88-B2CF625B9163}'
        CurVer = s 'JSDebug.BHOIEInstance.1'
    }
    CLSID
    {
        {ADDEE521-F1CC-4B89-8C88-B2CF625B9163} = s 'Companion.JS BHO'
        {
            ProgID = s 'JSDebug.BHOIEInstance.1'
            VersionIndependentProgID = s 'JSDebug.BHOIEInstance'
            'Programmable'
            InprocServer32 = s '%MODULE%'
            {
                val ThreadingModel = s 'Apartment'
            }
            val AppID = s '{669CCE51-4A7B-4B98-A5C9-B09D042BC7B5}'
            'TypeLib' = s '{E28A997E-924D-4947-92C9-AEED7C64DB78}'
        }
    }
}
HKLM
{
    SOFTWARE
    {
        Microsoft
        {    
            Windows
            {
                CurrentVersion
                {
                    Explorer
                    {
                        'Browser Helper Objects'
                        {
                            {ADDEE521-F1CC-4B89-8C88-B2CF625B9163} = s 'Companion.JS BHO'
                            {
                                val 'NoExplorer' = d '1'
                            }
                        }
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

where %MODULE% is replaced by the location of the CompanionJS.dll file

Please check if you have all those registry keys.

Re: Problems with v0.5

But, the question is why the install is not writing the registry keys ?

Do you have admin rights on your machine ?

Re: Problems with v0.5

Yes I am an admin user
I try installing using "Administrator" user too and is the same.
I will copy the keys into a .reg file and tell you whats happen

Edit: I copy the texto like you paste in the forum and is not a valid registry format. Can you paste this keys in a valid registry format?
to execute the .reg file and put it on the registry.
My CompanionJS.dll is located in "C:\Archivos de programa\Core Services\Companion.JS" Spanish windows

Thanks

Re: Problems with v0.5

Hi,

I have added the registry file to register the Companion.JS BHO : Check out the install page of Companion.JS (section "BHO not registered") to download the file :

http://www.my-debugbar.com/wiki/CompanionJS/Installing

Don't forget to check and change the CompanionJS.dll path if necessary !

Re: Problems with v0.5

@fabrice, Thanks for your help, I found the problem (not the solution yet). The problem is with the registry, access denied.
I have administration access, total access, but for some parts of the registry i haven't access, and one of this parts is the HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{ADDEE521-F1CC-4B89-8C88-B2CF625B9163}\*

I search for a solution, when I solve this issue I publish them for other users. The problem is not with CompanionJS. I assume some trojan or something like that...
