| Windows Vista: Instructions for turning Data Execution Prevention off |
Data Execution Prevention
The software protection libraries used by our products are not compatible with Windows Vista data execution prevention and so this needs to be turned off or an exception made for our apps in order for them to run. This can be done as follows:
1) Click on the Windows start icon in the toolbar and select "Control Panel" from the start menu:
2) Click on "System and Maintenance" in the Control Panel:
3) Click on "System" in the System and Maintenance panel:
4) Click on "Advanced system settings" in the System panel:
5) Click on the "Advanced" tab in the System Properties window and then click on "Settings..." in the Performance section:
6) Click on the "Data Execution Prevention" tab and either select the first option "Turn on DEP for essential Windows programs and services only"
or select "Turn on DEP for all programs and services except those I select:", click on the "Add..." button and locate the executable programs you wish to add as exceptions e.g. C:\Program Files\BreezeSys\BreezeBrowserPro\BreezeBrowser.exe
8) Click OK and close the Control Panel window
