Solution for QKW in win7 !!!

Postby robass on Wed Apr 28, 2010 12:57 pm

Hello,

after a long search I found a way to get QuicKeys win 3.03 working on windows 7.

The main problem was the UAC.
I finally found a little program to manage the UAC so that QuicKeys has enough rights to function properly:

http://www.replaceuac.com/

Installed it, allowed QuicKeys to run and that was it!

Hope this helps someone...

All the best,

robass

I do not run win7 64bit on my computer, so unfortunately I only can report the solution for the 32bit operating system.
Sorry for that.
Doesn't have win7 64bit something like a compatibility mode, too?

For me QuicKeys 3.0.3 works just fine under Windows 7-64bit without doing any tricks.
From your post - I thought you were indicating some trick needed to be done.

This worked beautifully for me! Thanks a million! :D :D

Update: "ReplaceUAC" caused my system (Dell E6400, 4Gb, Win7 32-bit) to bog down within 24 hours to the point of being unusable. I uninstalled that and used "TweakUAC", a very small app, and it runs great. On my third day now and it's perfect. I tried everything in native Win 7 UAC controls and nothing else worked. :D
