MS Hotfixes broke my PrimalForms!

Post by trwood »

Hi,I'm running PF2009 v1.1.9 on Win 7 Ultimate x64. Last night when shutting down, I allowed the MS patches to install (all 17 of them!).After starting this morning, I got a 'missing object' error on starting PF, followed by a warning message in the output box that said 'powershell not installed'.I have recovered by using a restore point created at the time of the patch install, which pretty much confirms one of them is the culprit.Any one else had this, or know which of the hotfixes is responsible?Tom

The issue seems to be isolated to 64bit OS systems. We are continuing to work on a solution.

It seems to function now on my test machines. Not sure, but it may only need a reboot to work or Microsoft may have released another update. Please give it a try once again.
Thank you,

I'm not sure what caused the problem, but it now functions on all our test machines as well as with other users and we all have KB983590 installed. Unfortunately I'm not sure what caused it to work again.
