Running RegiStar under Windows Vista
- To install RegiStar under Windows Vista, download and run the installation file REGIST32.EXE while logged onto an account with Administrator privileges. Accept the usual UAC warnings. The first time you run RegiStar after installation you must also do so using an Administrator account. For this initial run, right click the RegiStar 1.0 executable in the Start Menu and select "Run as administrator." Afterwards, the program can be run as normal, and can also be run using other user accounts.
- In order to use the RegiStar Help system under Windows Vista, you must download and install this Microsoft patch.
- The Open dialog box defaults to FITS file type under Windows Vista. The other file types supported by RegiStar (TIFF, JPEG) are available, and may be selected using the file-type section of the dialog box.
- The Save and Save As dialog boxes do not default to the correct file type under Windows Vista. The correct default file type as well as all file types supported by RegiStar (TIFF, JPEG, FITS) are available, and may be selected using the file-type section of the dialog box.
