ezy dashboard builder

[Lanser]

hi guys
tried the free ezy dashboard builder from aadconsulting but it fails to install with an error adding to registry message so 2 questions, 1 how can I fix it and 2 why does an addin have to alter the registry at all?

The best thing to do is to talk to THEM about it, not post here.

Use the Contact link at the bottom right of their page:

never would have thought of doing that myself

actually while waiting for a reply from them I thought I'd ask what I thought were the nice friendly helpful people on here, didnt expect anyone to fix it for me but did think someone might explain to me why addins need registry access

 

[boblarson]

Not all add-ins need registry access. So, it is a specific program requirement - hence the suggestion of them answering. Sorry if the original answer came off bad. I know that we've had a lot of people in the past NOT think about that, so that is a first step to suggest.

my apologies I read a couple of tuts about add-ins and they all mentioned making alterations to the registry so assumed all needed it
