  2. Cant install the Autocad getting error "DirectX Runtime Failed Failure is ignored, Result=1619"

    Hi Damien,

    I understand the inconvenience caused to you regarding the installation of AutoCAD 2017.I will certainly assist you.

    Follow the below steps and check if it helps.

    I suggest you to download the ORCA from their website (program allows you to modify an MSI file) then follow the below steps.

    If you have a thumb drive or DVD, you will need to copy the contents onto your hard drive.

    • Navigate to the location of the installation files
    • Navigate to the x64 folder
    • Find the application folder:
    • INSTALLFILES\X64\Acade
    • Right-Click the acad.msi file and choose “Edit with Orca”
    Once Orca is opened, navigate to the “CustomAction” table

    Notice on the right side panel under Action, there are a number of action items. Select each of the following items and right-click and choose “Drop Row”

    • InstallPreJit
    • NgenCreate
    • NgenCreateRollback
    • NgenDelete
    • NgenDeleteRollback
    • UninstallPreJit
    Go to File > Save. Than close the Orca application.

    Install AutoCAD application.

  3. Changing the default directories on Omnia

    Is it possible to change the default directories on the Omnia.

    Ideally I want to change the default my documents and sub folders to my storage/my documents/ and same for the default program installation path instead of programs I would like it to be my storage/programs/

    Also I know there is a registry hack to change the ringtone default directory, is there one to change the default SMS / Alarms tone directory?

    Thanks for any help.

    CHange default installation directory in msi file using ORCA

    Directory Size Utility

    First of all nice utility, Mindweaver!
    Second of all, it's so nice to see that this section ain't dead.

    I have a few questions/suggestions, maybe you'd want to see ...
    • maybe you rename Get Folder button caption to something more intuitive? Add Folder, Get Folder Size, Check Folder Size or something like that?
    • Could you add subfolder files to the right pane? (it can be a tickbox with include sub dirs)
    • maybe you also add export list to excel?
    • there's delete file button maybe you add delete folder button too?
    • and finally maybe you can add UP button for directories?
