UWF uwfmgr.exe doesn't do anything - windows

Bear with me please, since I don't know that much about Windows – I'm trying to set up UWF (Unified Writing Filter) here on my mac through a Parallels installation of Windows 10. I found out how to enable UWF through the Control Pane, which I did. I then restarted the Virtual Machine. When I then tried to configure it through the powershell or command prompt (both run in admin mode), I got no response whatsoever. The uwfmgr.exe is there under c:\windows\system32, but like I said, it doesn't do anything when I run it. No response – but also, no error.
Can anyone help me with this?

I had the same issue and solved it by downloading the latest ISO for 10 Enterprise.

It seems you need a Windows 10 Enterprise edition for this to work. Just re-activating windows with an Enterprise key makes uwfmgr.exe print stuff again. Just testing, whether it works as well.
This was tested on Windows 10, V1809.

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.

Windows 7 IIS can not be turned on

I'm trying to Turn on IIS Server on my 64-bit Windows 7 Ultimate installed notebook. But when I try to it on via *Turn Windows Features on and off * the progress bar is filling till the end and the computer is just locked. I can not do anything but restatring the computer with power button. And of course it is not enabled. Am I missing something ?

Please do some troubleshooting following Microsoft's article. I think CBS cache on this machine is broken, and the article shows how to identify the problem and get it fixed.

DOSBox Exit to error: CPU_SetSegGeneral: Stack segment zero

I am trying to run an old Clipper application. It runs fine on Win 7 32bit but when I try using the DOSBox 0.74 it crashes with the following error:
Exit to error: CPU_SetSegGeneral: Stack segment zero
Are there some settings I forget to set when running the DOSBox?
I need to be able to run this app in DOSBox as it appears to be only portable solution that would work on any Win 7, being it 32 or 64bit.
If no apparent solution is known for this problem maybe you can tell me what alternatives I have to run a Clipper 5.3 application on a Win 7 64-bit Home edition?
EDIT:
I tried it on Win 7 Home 64 bit with the very same result. What can I do?
I used clipper many years ago, clipper does cause problems because incorrect config.sys configuration, specially the setting "FILES" must be big enough (let´s say 200) for your application, but "original" dosbox does not provide a way to adjust this setting.
Try the patch from http://www.shdon.com/blog/2009/09/05/adjustable-files-setting-in-dosbox
This patch allows to configure FILES adding a new setting on dosbox options file
Steps:
Backup dosbox.exe and replace it with the patched version
Edit the dosbox options file and add FILES=200 to the [DOS] section
Try it and post the results since i don't have clipper 5.3 to test.
Wanting to close this question I will write what was the only solution thanks to which I was able to run that aged application on Win7 64bit.
It was VMLite XP Mode.
I simply followed the steps described in their how to guide and it was up and running then I copied my application into the VMLite XP Mode, and it was running fine.
Finally I created, after some googling, a shortcut to my desktop and now I can easily start the application from my Win7 64bit desktop which then lunches the VMLite XP Mode which starts the application :) or something along this lines anyway, so far, it works great.

WinCvs Client setup

Dear all, I am using gcvs-1.11 version. My cvs server in RHEL ,i have some RHEL machines and some Windows Xp machines as client.RHEL cvs clients are working fine but from windows i couldn't able to access cvs server. In installed WinCvs 2.0.24 in windows. when i am trying to login from windows machine it doesn't respond for my request.I am getting
"Unable to initialize the CVS process: The system cannot find the file specified. The CVS used is : cvs.exe" as result. How to setup WinCvs client to access gcvs. Thanks in advance
To resolve it I reinstalled CVSNT this time allowing the CVSNT Server to be installed. This fixed the problem although I now had to manually disable the unwanted CVSNT services.
(I have not tried. Please let us know whether it successes or not.)

Please try "Run as administrator". It works on Windows 7 when I experienced the same situation.
