Windows Script Host error

[cchimera]

I have installed Formativ Runtime on my Citrix server. We have an application that gets the
“The Windows Script Host Has Been Disabled. to protect you from potentially malicious scripts, the ability to automatically run VBS and VBE scripts has been disabled on this machine.” message. I followed the instructions in another post on how to re-enable the assocation and it works but I have to do this each time a user starts a session. Is there any way to enable this permanently? Or do I have to remove the runtime?

Thanks,

Carol

Since I am the original poster, I thought I would update the forum on issues with the fix. The program that refused to run was Opera. It is the GUI for my billing system and needs VBS to run. We edited the registry as instructed here but that didn’t fix the problem. We found that in My Computer’s File Types, VBS was set to open with Advansys. We had to change the path and point it to Microsoft Windows Based Script Host (c:windowssystem32cscript.exe). This corrected the problem. We have written a script that can automate this process. They don’t seem to like registry hacks posted here so if the moderator would email me, I can provide the file to them for distribution.

Could you please send the script (if possible the source) to support@advansyscorp.com. We will post the script to our site so other users can download it.

Please see the following post where you can download a console application which restores the VBS association and turns off the Formativ ‘disable associations’ settings. The post also have the registry key for ‘Redirect Associations’.
