>Ideally Microsoft should include a 32-bit version of OSK.exe in the system folder and allow us to use it, if being called from >a 32-bit application. >Another work around is to get your hands on 32-bit Windows XP and pull osk.exe from it, bundle this with you app. This means the application most likely runs in 32-bit mode on a 64-bit system. In the Task Manager you will see a *32 on Windows 7 and a (32-bit) on Windows 10. With it unchecked, the application will run in 64-bit mode on a 64-bit system and calling Windows System32 osk.exe will find everything it needs.

Greetings, I've always got a problem with something lol.Anyway I've made no changes nor have I added anything to my system but the on screen keyboard does not work.Why am I using it you ask? I just wanted to try it out(ease of access) everything else works (magnifier,speech etc.) The error that appears when I open it is as follows C: Windows system32 osk.exe A referral was returned from the server.I tried opening it in command prompt(as administrator) got the same error, also did a clean reboot same error tried a new account same error.

Even what you describe as 'sending it directly from the pc to the web server' is exactly what FTP is. There are alot of FTP functions available for vb6.0 out there. Vba upload file to web server.

Any ideas on why it wouldn't work(and how to make it work) is appreciated.Thanks. Don't try to open it. Osk dot exe is at 3 locations on my 32 bit Win 7 Home premium C: Windows winsxs x86_microsoft-windows-osk_31bf3856ad364e35_6.1.760 then 0 or 1. Followed by the rest of the version. Size 631KB On my 64 bit Win 7 Home premium, it is at 6 locations. The same three as above as well as in C: Windows winsxs amd64_microsoft-windows-osk Size of the 64 bit version 677 KB but the 32 bit version is the same at 631 KB.

Using Windows Explorer, find the file osk, right click, send to desktop as a shortcut and then place the shortcut in the folder I have listed above. Do this until all 3 versions are in the proper location. Hi, well this is a system file and should work, we don't know what version of windows you have it is possible something has altered your UAC account permissions, either a gpedit setting or a third party app.

To be sure go to start search and type:- cmd right click on the returned cmd.exe and select 'run as administrator' at the command prompt copy paste the following:- reg query 'HKLM SOFTWARE Microsoft Windows CurrentVersion Policies System' > 0 & notepad 0 (press enter) please copy paste the notepad outcome here.
