Yes, an error occurs almost always.

Hello strogg,

I have tested fileinfo 2.03 on some win98 & win95 computers with different extentions but it seems to work well, even with plugins.

try to delete fileinfo.ini and let fileinfo recreate a new one with default values.

try also to fix the default open page in fileinfo.ini
RememberAP=1
ActivePage= (try number from 1 to 6)

Hi raytc

fileinfo is designed to dump information from executable files only.
ie extention like :
exe, 386, sys, vxd, dll, ax, cpl, ocx, olb, qtc, qtx, scr, tlb, tsp, vbx, ds, ...

as many file can be executable file, fileinfo doesn't look at extension but analyse all files to search for MZ signature.

Hello Franзois!

I tried everything you told me but unfortunately without any result :(

Plugin behaves a very strange way. For example if first I open any EXE or DLL file and then open any *.386, *.cpl, *. *.cpx, *.ax. files - plugin doesn't crushes while I close it.

But if I open the abovementioned extensions first (especially from System directory) plugin crushes while I close it with an error message: "Access violation at address 64001365 Read of address FFFFFFFF".

The same thing happens with *.ocx files the only difference is the error message: "TOTALCMD caused an invalid page fault in
module KERNEL32.DLL at 017f:bff7a138"

Maybe it is a OS problem? How can I solve it?

Hello damjang!

may be it's related to the bug reported by strogg under win98.

Hello damjang!

to turn around this bug, you can install ieview.wlx in order to see excel files and place it before fileinfo.wlx (in the viewer plugin's list)

Crash of TC when browsing cygwin executables

Viewing most of the cygwin executable with fileinfo plugin brings down TC when the tab "DLL Dependencies" is selected. There is no crashdump and no error message.

System: WinXP SP1, TC 6.03a, Fileinfo 2.03

I found a way to turn around launching of xls files. it's due to a call in a microsoft library.

I think you will be interrested by this other info :
I've start to work to dump palm OS executable ( PRC, ... )

I tried all files you sent to me. with version 2.01, 2.02, 2.03 without crashing TC. ( I'm working on WinXPPro with SP2 )

if someone can confirmed fileinfo locks viewing this file from cygwin :
perl5.8.5
cpp.exe, gcc.exe, gcov.exe, g++.exe from build 3.3.3 ( 08-19-2004 )

Hello Franзois!

Thank you for new version of FileInfo!

Think I found the reason of previous problems with opening the system files in Win98SE. The IE6 sp1 at least must be installed, to prevent crushes. IMHO the problem was obviously related with old versions of ActiveX libraries. Now everything is ok!
