Register Envelope.js fails on Vista due to UAC

[user]

In Vista, for anyone who still has the UAC on, the Register Envelope.js will fail every time. This is because under Vista, regsvr32 needs to be running with admin privledges, but isn't smart enough to ask for them through the UAC.

I was able to use regsvr32 on the command line to register the envelope.ocx by using the following steps:

1. Use the search box in the start menu to search for cmd.
2. Right click on cmd.exe and choose 'Run as administrator'.
3. Run regsvr32 on the command line as normal to register envelope.ocx.

It might be a good idea to make Register Envelope.js suggest these steps whenever it detects that the attempt to register the .ocx file has failed.

If you would like me to modify the Register Envelope.js file accordingly, contact me at mhykes+buze@…
