Windows 11 warns against installing xampp - xampp

I have a relatively new PC on Windows 11, 22 h2, the latest. I have been down multiple paths trying to get localhost to open on this PC. I searched to see if my edition blocks it, but have found no such problem documented.
Following this frustration, and as a throwing up my hands experience, I said fine, I will install Xampp if it's going to act like that.
Immediate upon clicking the exe file (xampp-windows-x64-8.1.10-0-VS16-installer.exe), windows throws a warning, and gives two choice, Run anyway or Don't run. The blue background screen has these words:
Microsoft Defender SmartScreen prevented an unrecognized app from starting. Running this app might put your PC at risk.
I never saw this in Windows 10 with my old PC. Why now?
App:
xampp-windows-x64-8.1.10-0-VS16-installer.exe

Clickonce App Doesn't start with Windows 1803

I have a Clickonce app from Visual Studio 2015 SP3 that is published to the network server and used in-house only. The program works just fine when launched from Visual Studio. It runs just fine on a Windows machine that does not have the 1803 update. But once a machine updates to 1803, the application no longer starts. I get the "Checking for updates..." window then nothing. On a fresh install, I usually get the Smartscreen telling me the program may be dangerous. It doesn't get that far.
I've created the Clickonce from a computer with the 1803 update and the problem still exists.
I've disconnected the machine from the network. The application starts but then has no database access and it needs the database. It's also written to hide buttons that would use the database to prevent users from trying to do things that require it.
I found a workaround (third paragraph) at https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/7cbd16f5-526e-4b0b-a186-3ebf41b7b349/smartscreen-prompt-does-not-show-for-clickonce-app-since-windows-10-update-1803?forum=win10itprogeneral. When I start the application from the directory mentioned, I get the Smartscreen and can tell it to run anyway. Every time I click the desktop icon, it works just fine.
If a new release is published, the new release is downloaded and the program updated, but the Smartscreen no longer appears and the application never starts.
So somewhere between installing the latest update and the Smartscreen, this is failing. Anyone else experiencing this and have an idea as to why?
Yes, frustratingly I also experienced this today. Presumably a security update that they'll release another patch for given this is quite a pain for developers and users of small business apps.
Rather than disable Defender or SmartScreen I chose to add my deployment website to the Trusted Sites in Internet Explorer and that then re-instated the warning dialog and my app updated and ran as before.
Really annoying given the nature of the issue and how long it took to figure out, but at the same time I had to use IE today, which is a rare event nowadays.
This works for me...Warn doesnt warn anymore...
After running in the same problem, I just found that my application was going to halt after a stupid uncaught exception.
Despite the fact that the image below is in Portuguese, Event Viewer shows the right error cause.
In my case, was a corrupted settings file!
It appears as though some subsequent Windows Updates have fixed the issue on several of our PC's that were previously experiencing the issue.
Check for the updates listed here.

system.net.sockets and windows 10 error?

I'm having a very strange problem with an application in windows 10. It consists of several .exe in the same computer communicating between them with sockets using system.net.sockets library.
The problem I have is that after installing Windows 10 in a new computer, install all windows updates and then installing that application, connection to sockets doesn't work correctly and the application fails. The strangest thing is that if you leave the computer alone for 1-2 days the applications starts working just fine. The same has happened after installing version 1803 update, it stops working and then works one or two days later.
Any idea of what can it be? Has anyone seen something similar?
It really seems to be related to the 1803 update you mentioned.
Symptoms:
Running an application from a network share will fail when creating a socket;
Copying the very same application to a local drive/path will work just fine, without any further modification.
We are also struggling with this while connecting to an Oracle database (both ODBC and ODP.NET) and it seems the issue has recently been acknowledged:
https://support.oracle.com/knowledge/Oracle%20Database%20Products/2399465_1.html
It also seems this is a recurrent Windows bug:
Win Socket Creation fails with Error code 10022 if non super user
https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/windowsdesktop/en-US/3076a9cd-57a0-418d-8de1-07adc3b486bb/socket-fails-with-error-10022-when-application-is-run-from-certain-network-shares-on-vista-and?forum=wsk
Sorry, no effective solution at the time (other than copying the app binaries to a local folder). I'll update this answer once we get a better solution.
OK, looking a little further I found here in SO that this might be related to a SMBv1 network share, which describes the environment we had here (the network share was disabled because of another bug we faced - thanks MSFT).
Re-enabling SMBv2 / SMBv3 on the server solved the issue.

DEP0001 : Unexpected Error: -1988945906 while deploying Windows UWP app to phone

Exact error:
Severity Code Description Project File Line Suppression State
Error DEP0001 : Unexpected Error: -1988945906 TestApp
What does it mean? It seems it isn't problem with application, it works OK on PC.
Version of OS: 1511, Windows 10 for phones 10.0.10586.164
I've experienced the same problem after updating Visual Studio community to Update 2. Typing in CMD (under admin rights) the following command solved my issue:
net start IpOverUsbSvc
Thanks to Agrgg for a good tip ;)
This kind of error happens very randomly and usually it means there was an issue during the deployment of the app. Things to check:
Developer mode is correctly enabled on phone
Uninstall the app from phone, rebuild solution and then try debug again
Check that the architecture for all projects is set accordingly (ARM for debugging on real device)
Sometimes the VS debugger hangs up, so closing VS and kill from Task Manager all VS processes that are eventually running and restart VS may also help.
I had the same error with deploying onto Windows Phone 8.1 device. In my case the problem was in Windows Phone IP over USB Transport (IpOverUsbSvc) service, which wasn't running. The deployment error disappeared after I'd started the service manually.
I had the same problem.
"net start IpOverUsbSvc" didn't worked for me (throws Access is denied Exception).
I have followed following steps to fix.
Start Run (Windows+R), Type: services.msc
Start/Restart Windows phone IP over USB Transport.
For the RPi, I have RPi3 with WIOT (build 14376) this error happens after failed deployment. Just restart VS and it'll deploy ok.
After trying some of the answers already provided and nothing worked, I fixed the error by simply restarting the phone.
After that the error was gone for me.
I had the same issue, and found that in my case it was occurring while the phone was downloading system updates in the background.
App updates/installations from the app Store were also prevented from downloading/installing.
After the update had finished, all was back to working again.
As Windows Phone 10 doesn't seem to make it obvious that it's downloading updates, maybe worth checking this out if you hit this problem.
I had the same error, solution is here: https://msdn.microsoft.com/ru-ru/library/windows/apps/jj863509(v=vs.105).aspx
Look at Checking BIOS settings required by Hyper-V for Data Execution Prevention. You must select "Turn on DEP for all programs and services except those i select" and in my case application deploys successfully.
For me, it was as simple as unlocking the phone so that the computer would have access to it.
I had this issue as well. None of the answers helped me. IpOverUsbSvc was up and runing, phone reset, system reboot, nothing...
The issue was fixed after a Visual Studio "repair": control panel -> Programs and features -> select VS2015 -> Repair
I got a similar error.
The reason the error occurred for me was because I forgot to add the new splash images in assets after deleting the old ones.
The solution was to add the images. To get the correct image names and sizes, I used this extension for visual studio.
For Windows 10 (desktop) users
I faced this problem after I uninstalled Windows 10 SDK. It deleted the IpOverUsbSvc service from the system.
Solution
Download the Windows 10 SDK .iso installer
Inside it there is Installers folder.
Find Windows IP Over USB-x86_en-us.msi. Install it. (Don't worry if there is no setup window, it installs fast and silently).
I didn't even have to reboot VS2015, it just worked.
Check if the IpOverUsbSvc service is running
Open a Powershell prompt and type Get-Service -Name *USB*
Or go to the Services window. There you should see the IpOverUsbSvc running.
So, I think I get the trick. After plugged in your Windows Mobile device, Windows App Deploy can see W10M device, but once your device goes to lock screen, WPD can not detect it anymore.
You should to plug out and plugin again, with screen unlocked, to make it detectable. (I'm not a really English speaker).

System Registry Error VB6 running as User Windows 10

I just recently upgraded to Windows 10 and ever since I have upgraded I can't get into VB6. I keep getting the System Registry error. I have googled and tried about everything and nothing seems to work. Running VB6 as Administrator is not an option, don't ask but we can't have admin to our computers we have to be logged in as users. The way we use to fix it was to trick Windows 7 log on as Admin run VB6 as Admin then switch me back to user and it worked, but this no longer works. Does anyone have any suggestions that currently have VB6 working as a user and not admin? I really don't want to resort to have to run it out of my virtual machine :( Thanks in advance!
Amanda,
I know it is 3 years later and I wonder what you did. and my solution may be late.
I moved VB6 Enterprise to a Windows10 machine, I did not upgrade the machine to Win10 with the IDE. However to make it work for some of my clients with Win10 machines I:
Back up all the VB6 files, folder and directories.
Using control panel in Win10, uninstall VB6 app. That's right, uninstall!
Using the original install disk, running it as an Administrator, install the program.
If the program has been updated to a later version, you need to get a copy of the latest version and copy over the one that was installed.
Or, Sweet Talk your IT guy into making you a new install disk with the latest version you are supposed to be running.
Go to the folder where the exe file is installed, Right Click on it and open the Properties, and go to the Compatibility tab.
Choose run as an administrator, and also click the Run this program in compatibility mode for Windows XP Service Pack3, or if it shows Latest version of Windows XP try that. You may need to check with your IT department.
Warning: if the VB6 program uses any non-Microsoft tools you may need to register them by hand.
I suspect this has already been worked out for you, but I put it here for anyone that may stumble across it, needing it.

Error adding modes in Processing

I recently downloaded Processing 2.2.1 and when I tried to add a programming mode through the menu on the right side, I got a java.net.SocketException: Network is unreachable even though I can obviously connect to the internet, and an error message at the bottom of the "Add Modes" popup that said could not find listof available contributions instead of a list of the modes. I know that some modes can be manually downloaded and unzipped but I have yet to find a .zip file for the Python mode. Is it possible to fix this error so that I can download the modes through the GUI box and if so, how?
I had previously downloaded it for my Linux machine which runs Ubuntu and everything worked fine there but I was trying to migrate everything to my Windows 32 bit so I just re-downloaded it today for windows and got this error.
