My readers said this works for Adobe CS3 installation, too.
Tnx 😀
i needed it 😉
Holy crap! Thank you, thank you thank you. You know how long I’ve been searching for an answer like this. I didn’t have the problem with IE6 but with an Adobe CS3 installation. All is good in the world now.
thnks man
this worked for adobe CS3 perfectly!
I went to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager
and I found the “FileRenameOperations” value and delete it. However the system doesn’t allow me to delete the value. Value data: 0000.
What can I do ?
Thanks
