Zinstall tray icon missing on old desktop / ZPOD
The Zinstall tray icon [?] should be available both on the new desktop / host computer and on the old desktop / ZPOD.
If it is missing on the old desktop / ZPOD follow these instructions to restore it:
- Switch to the old desktop
- Run the "Zinstall Guest Utility" from the desktop and see if the tray icon appears.
- If it does - that means that the problem is that the Zinstall Guest Utility was disabled from running on startup.
- Enable it to run on startup:
- Open a command prompt by going to Start Menu -> All Programs -> Accessories -> Command prompt
- Run the command: msconfig
- Go to the "Startup" tab
- Find the item named "Zinstall" and make sure the checkbox is checked.
- If running "Zinstall Guest Utility" manually doesn't work:
- Reinstall it by going to Start Menu > All Programs > Zinstall, running "Install guest utility" and following the instructions
- If it still doesn't work - then you need to run an upgrade install of Zinstall on your new desktop / host computer:
- Close Zinstall [?]
- On the new desktop / host computer - Run the Zinstall XP7/ZPOD Creator just like you did when you performed the migration
- Choose "I'm moving between two computers", "This is my new computer" ( even if you chose a different scenario while performing the migration )
- Choose "Upgrade or repair existing Zinstall"
- This will repair your Zinstall installation.
- Now, switch to the old desktop and the Zinstall tray icon [?] will appear as before.
