Errr,
What's the point of a portable (USB) replacement for the Windows Scheduler? And if there would be a point, doesn't this disqualify itself for writing to the Windows Registry?

Hey, nice to see other PowerPro users.

I got rid of Windows Scheduler and use nnCron instead. Very simple, flexible, and it uses the unix crontab format.

IDK I just opened the program and took a screengrab and saved it to the desktop
I didnt run any other programs during the regshots

Napiophelios on 2013-05-25 01:29

you said
"@Napiophelios
These are Trolltech (Qt framework) keys."

so I thought I might have missed a memo some where and maybe they were normal keys made
unavoidable I dont know

I am Baas on 2013-05-25 04:38

Napiophelios is right, it does write Trolltech junk to the registry. The "hats off" award obviously goes to him.

MicroSIP requires MS Visual C++ runtime libraries installed in your computer, otherwise doesn't work, only 2008 version is valid, other Visual C++ packages from Microsoft (i.e: 2005 or 2010 versions) don't work.

lautrepay on 2011-12-10 01:29

There's no need to install/uninstall. It can be uniextracted.
@gusi4u: If I am not mistaken, LibreOffice needs Visual C++ version 2008 only, too.

AdrianK_IT on 2012-10-16 18:07

I can't get this software to work at all. Have reverted to PhonerLite, which has a clumsy interface but works OK. I like the neat gui for MicroSIP, but can't make outgoing calls at all, getting a 'connection timeout' message; and after answering an incoming call, can neither hear or be heard by caller.
Bizarre; use the same settings as for PhonerLite, and when MicroSIP is running, it registers with my VOIP provider (Sipgate) OK, but ... zilch!
