Title: Runtime Error 9
Post by: Blitzk on March 10, 2013, 04:19:22 am
Hi everybody!
I'm trying to start Windows Repair (AIO) from a troubled pc but I get this runtime error.
It's Italian, it says "Run-time Error '9': Subscript out of Range"
What could it be?

OS: Windows Vista Home Basic SP2 (Italian)
VB6: installed.

Thanks.

Did you download the portable version of my program or the installer?

I'm using the portable version because the system doesn't let me install almost anything.

That error normally means the program doesnt have a file it needs. Make sure you extract all the files out of the zip file and dont try to run the program from the zip itself :wink:

Thank you.
I've extracted all files in a folder in C:\ and launched the .exe .. still the same error.

More infos (just in case):
Windows Vista Home Basic SP2 (Italian) with a KSOD (with mouse pointer and nothing else).
- Startup repair doesn't find errors;
- No sytem restore points available (maybe lost, because I'm pretty sure there was at least one);
- Windows Event Logs cleared and Windows Event Log service disabled;
- SFC doesn't find errors;
- Chkdsk [/R] doesn't report anything strange;
- No malware or viruses [Dr. Web + AOSS analysis];
- Tried the RpcSs solution, but it's ok [already NT AUTHORITY/NetworkService];
- No problem with Winlogon Shell registry key [already explorer.exe];

At the moment only sticky keys trick works.

Something weird: the default Windows screensaver starts normally after about 15 minutes..why?  :sarcastic:

Odd, post a screen shot showing all the files in the folder so I can see if any file is missing. You can also try running it in safe mode. I never had anyone else have the problem.

The error is for the tabs I use in the program.

I've made a text file [ dir /o/s > content.txt ], because there are a lot of subfolders and files.
Is it the same?

pcwintech_tabs.ocx is the one giving you the error. And there are no missing files that I can see.

The error normally means a array is out of range, but I dont have that error on my system and your the first to report it. I will check the code to my tab control and see if I can find anything :wink:

Oops  :shy:

I've noticed that the folders of your program contains some .reg files (and text files that are registry files renamed).
What if I merge them into the registry of the messy pc? [only Vista folders in my case :smiley: ]
A kind of "manual mode". :)
At my own risk, I know.

Thats how the program does it lol

Of course there are a lot more things to it than just the reg files.

I put the files there so advanced users have some control if they like.

I checked my tab code and one of the things it does is load the windows shell32.dll

If your system is really in bad shape that might be why your getting the error.

Mmh, I see.
Thanks for the hint  :wink:
Ok, so I'll try the "manual mode" and let you know.

Nope.. it doesn't work.  :sad:

I did my best, but it's time to end the suffering.
Thank you very much for your help.
This is a computer issue, not your software.
Thank you very much for your help.

In case you need Italian translator for your software, just call me  :cheesy:

A Windows Repair Install would be the next thing for you to do :-)
