Hello I recently got a new computer with windows 7 and i want to know what settings i need to use for Hek+. It closes like in vista. What settings must I put por in properties as I forget?

If it is incompadable with windows 7 can someone get me these tags from the default halo maps?

Thank you very much! loljesse

Properties > Compatibility > Disable Desktop Composition

It still gives me the message that HEKplus has stopped working. I don't need it at the moment, but thanks anyway.

Edit:I also tried disabling other features located in properties as well as running in compatibility mode, but no cigar.

Does it run at all, or just freeze when you right click?

When I open it says ''HEKplus has stopped working. Checking for a solution to the problem". Then it closes unless i cancel it first.

try redownloading and running the newest version of HEK+.
also try disabling desktop composition and running as admin.

I am using the newest version and running as admin won't to anything, because UAC is disabled.

You shouldn't have UAC disabled. That's what makes your PC prone to being hacked.

You don't know what UAC is, do you? Keeping it on doesn't protect you from being hacked. It merely warns you whenever an application tries to run. Though, it is recommended to keep UAC on at default level, at the least.

ASP?

Advanced Styll Projects

I'd laugh at any idiot that tries to download the file looking for asp stuff. LOL.

I find it very annoying. When ever I try to make a new folder in my Halo root directory it says, "ARE YOU SURE YOU ARE ATHORISED TO DO THIS?''

I did :C



Yea, it's very annoying, but the computer can't distinguish between viruses and normal files, so it alerts you when anything wants to run.

Then disable it imho.

o i c wut u did ther

Annoying things tend to be good for you.

HEK+ works fine on windows 7.

Then there wouldn't be such a thread like this. It's nearly impossible to replicate two computers wherein if one app will run, the other will too, and vice-versa. In short, just because your PC(or anybody else's you[or anybody else] tested it on) can run HEK+ on Win 7, doesn't mean it'll work on other PCs with Win 7.

Anyways if it was sarcasm then you should've included that beige stuff.

Try changing the compatibility to Vista or XP

I have a 64-bit system, might that be the problem?

is it freezing or does it flat out not start?

It doesn't start at all.

And I'm using a x64 Windows 7, so that's probably not it.

Works on my windows 7,

64 bit computers have lots of problems running certain things, the most known case being flash player, but windows 7 64 bit can run that as my friend has it and can run HEK+

You can technically run HEK+ using an aero theme. It'll just freeze and crash when you right click or attempt to use a menu. It should still run though.

oof. That happened to me all the time.
If anyone else has this problem, go into the HEK+.exe properties and somewhere undey the compatibility tab, disable visual themes.

That doesn't solve his problem. His problem is that it crashes on start, not that it freezes when you use a menu.

This is a permissions and safety issue with trying to create or write to any file or folder in the \program files(x86) or \program files directory tree. There is no reason other than during an install for programs to write to anything in those folders, with the exception of some legacy windows programs. Vista and Win7 are much safer to operate because a standard user does not have permissions to write to those folders. DO NOT disable the UAC. Login as the administrator and change the permissions on the \program files(x86)\Microsoft Games\Halo Custom Edition folder to allow you write permissions when logged in as a standard user.
