Machine number two lost its profile under application data. This one actually worked ok, but I needed to see how consistently this procedure worked. Did a capture of Firefox and all was well on machine number one. Do not understand why only these two files as there were many more.ĭecided to delete the Firefox layer on all three machines. Looked in the fslrdr directory and found some entries for these two files that occurred during the capture of the installer for the player. The Dynaplayer.dll just switched back and forth between its long name and short name. Machine number three had two files SwHelper_1103471.exe and the same file with the short name displayed at the same time while the Firefox layer was active and returned only to the original file while inactive. Also another file SwHelper_1103471.exe got changed to a shortname in the same fashion. Then returned to the long name when the Firefox layer was inactive. While activated, the file Dynaplayer.dll had it's name changed to a short name. Machine number two exhibited some unusual behavior whether the layer was activated or not. Not sure why these files get installed in Firefox because the player works without them. While the layer was inactive I deleted the files and directories for Firefox. Except if one were to deactivate Firefox, the plugins subdirectory became part of the system and not the layer. I am pretty sure on machine number two and three deactivated Firefox and captured the shockwave player.
SHOCKWAVE PLAYER NOT WORKING FIREFOX INSTALL
I should have made notes because it is hard to remember what I did exactly trying to install the player. Three machines running the same OS and three different results. There they got split into director, shockwave 11, and a subdirectory of shockwave 11 named extras. The rest of the files for the shockwave player went into this path C:\windows\system32\adobe. Executing the Shockwave installer with Firefox active, the two files went into the plugins directory, but were not and would not be part of the layer. But if you have not run the installer, one would not have them.
SHOCKWAVE PLAYER NOT WORKING FIREFOX MANUAL
These two files go into the Firefox plugins directory.įrom reading the manual and if I understand it correctly the best way would be to manually drop these two files in the read only section of the fslrdr directory. There are two files that would normally get installed during a conventional installation with Firefox not in a layered environment. All machines are backed up with an image on network drives, so if the worst case happens, recover via the image.
SHOCKWAVE PLAYER NOT WORKING FIREFOX UPDATE
The real goal here was not to just update the player, but gain a better understanding of how SVS works. First, I did this on three different machines running XP Pro SP3.
