Are you referring to an image? The information looks like it comes from an image, which of course does not show up in these comments. I cannot locate a similar solution on your website. If it exists, please provide us with a link.
It looks like you are suggesting the user run regedit.exe, but regedit.exe is not in the text you provided. Regardless, many Windows users will find that trying to execute regedit.exe is blocked by their system. So, what then?
It looks you have your software in a condition that it cannot easily get out of. You can’t expect all interested/potential users of your software to be computer experts at the hacker level.
Why not create a small “fixer” program that will prompt the user to allow editing the registry to remove the registry key you are suggesting will likely solve the problem?
For me, this is the second or third attempt to install GeekerPDF, but it never gets to the point of allowing the user to enter a license key. Instead, Windows reports that GeekerPDF has stopped working. Windows can try to recover your information, Close the program. The next display states, “GeekerPDF is trying to recover your information. This might take several minutes, followed by a progress bar, then at the bottom, a Cancel button.
Users will have no clue “what information” is being referred to that Windows will try to recover. That in itself sounds very suspicious. It sounds like GeekerPDF was removing information that belongs to the user. No request for permission to so this has been asked, and therefore, no permission has been given.
Can you please explain why Windows is reporting these things, what data exactly is being referenced, and why this situation even exists in the first place?
