Windows 7 and WS_FTP 2007.1

I've been running WS_FTP 2007 on Win Vista Ultimate as of 2007. Excellent, no problems at all! Even using Vista 64-bit.

Now I have installed 2007.1 on Windows 7 build 7000 64-bit.

It seems to install allright, but when I start it up it produces twice the same popup window error:



When I 'OK' both popups the WS_FTP splash screen (here in the background) remains. I DO get the screens to enter an ftp account which completes ok, however the splash screen remains on the desktop and nothing else happens.

After killing the splash screen and restarting WS_FTP the same happens all over again:
The splash screen appears, the two popups, one after the other, when 'OK'-ed they disappear but the splash screen remains and freezes (even after reboot).

What is wrong, anyone?

Thanks!

Have you tried running it in compatibility mode (set to Vista) in W7? If you right click on the shortcut and click properties, take a look at the compatibility tab and see if that does the trick

Thanks for the advice Ian,

I had indeed already tried that. I also tried the 'formal' installation way for downloaded programs:
1. Right-click the install program, choose 'Properties'
2. Choos tab 'General'
3. Click 'Unblock' button.
.... that did not do the trick. Problem remained the same.

However....
I just read the solution as given bij Ipswitch support:

- Delete the file named psapi.dll

Glad you got it fixed

Thanks for posting back Roderick, it's always good to have a solution to help others
