First of all, it used to work well before I did some play with Windows Sidebar/Explorer settings! I just reset my Internet Explorer 7 settings to defaults. That’s all. I also did a try to the sidebar weather applet in sidebar.
After this play, WW IS BROKEN IN AN INCREDIBLE (for me) WAY.
To try to solve everything fast, I removed WW and install it again becouse it started asking me if I want to install a new map at any new reboot or log on/log off in any account of my Vista 64 machine. It happen EVERY TIME AT EVERY REBOOT OR LOG/ON-OFF and it stopped update the weather.
So I removed the app, carefully deleted everything even in %APPDATA%\roaming\weather watcher folder and reinstalled the app!
It is INCREDIBLE: even after reinstall, as I said, it keep asking me for new maps and backup EVERY TIME, main program window do not appear and searching for a city stay forever on search!
Here some more info: weather.com desktop applet (I’m using it now, considering sadly WW is now broken ) work and update perfectly like WW it used do in the past.
Sadly City Search in WW is blocked on Searching… forever.
Hehehe, I found out there is a lot of beta versions and I did a try to the latest called “L”.
This version seems to have a Map Upgrade Assistant. And that confirm there is some problems with my old maps! Then the point is: WHERE ARE MY OLD MAPS CONSIDERING I COMPLETELY REMOVED THE APPLICATION BEFORE INSTALL THE NEW ONE???
Error message is always: “Run Time Error 432: File Name Or Class Name Not Found During Automation Operation”.
If I choose the option Ask Me Again Later, the program stay in Please Wait forever and I have to kill it.
After I kill it, if I try to run Weather Watcher again I do have this error message: Run Time Error 91 Object variable or with Block variable not set. I click ok and the program is terminated.
Hope this can help someone (maybe rockin Mile??? :-))) to help me!
I’m definitely a fan of WW, much much better compared to the default weather.com free desktop
