PLEASE Print and Read the  Instructions Below 

CAUTION:     

• If you do not get a message saying that "NNN (number) files unzipped successfully" at the completion of the unzip process, please email or call us for assistance.
   
  

• If WinZip generates a message that it is unable to create the output file, it means that a copy of REC-TEC is currently running.  It may be necessary to restart your computer to terminate the running copy.
  
  

• If REC-TEC generates "Error 339: Component 'AResize.ocx' or one of its dependencies not correctly registered: a file is missing or invalid" locate and click on SentinelV.exe in the RECTEC folder.  This will register the file. 
  

• Error "...not a valid Win32 application" occurs when you open a downloaded file.  

99.9% of the time this error is a result of a dial-up connection corrupting the file.  When the download takes a VERY long time, the file gets corrupted and is not recognized as a Win32 application.  If you have dial-up, either go to a computer with broadband to download, save and copy the file to a jump drive or CD/DVD or ask us for a CD.  Either this or you have a Virus.

To show common file types:  In My Computer select the specific drive (C:)>Tools>Folder Options>View.  Uncheck the block "Hide extensions for known file types"

Microsoft Vista:

• You must Temporarily Disable the User Account Control (UAC) in Vista before Unzipping the REC-TEC Files.

  Click Start/ type in the Search bar "msconfig" without quotes and hit ENTER... In the System Configuration window that will pop-up, select the TOOLS Tab. Scroll down the list and look for Disable UAC. Select it and click launch. Close all open windows and reboot... 

  OR

  Run gpEdit.msc
  Go to: Computer Configuration | Windows Settings | Security Settings | Local Policies | Security Options
  User Account Control: Run all users including Administrators as standard users - Disable
  User Account Control: Behavior of the elevation prompt - No Prompt

   

• If RECTECPhoto.exe generates "Error 339: Component 'AResize.ocx' or one of its dependencies not correctly registered: a file is missing or invalid" in Microsoft Vista, you must RIGHT CLICK on SentinelV.exe and run it as the Administrator.
  
  

• It will be VERY beneficial to use My Computer to browse to the RECTEC.exe (or DRIVE3.exe) file in the program folder and Right Click on it to Run it as Administrator the first time the program is run.
  
  

• If the Error 339 message still appears in conjunction with other files, please see the PDF document "Register ActiveX Controls.pdf" in the program folder.
  

•   Reset the Security on your Computer (UAC is your choice).
