Today I turned on my neglected Minolta scanner and found that none of
my preferences or presets were showing up. The "Help" button gave me a
"@@@@" window, and the file type dropdown list in the Scan window was
empty (which makes it considerably harder to save a file). It seemed
pretty obvious that there was a missing pointer of some sort to the
resources, but I couldn't think of anything I'd done to cause such a
problem. Finally I checked the registry. Under
LocalMachine\Software\Minolta, there was an entry for my Silverfast
demo directory. I changed it to the Dimage Scan location and (of
course) everything started showing up properly in the Minolta utility.
Anyone else ever encounter this? The demo version I have installed is
6.4.2r.2b, which isn't the latest...maybe there was an installation bug
specific to this release. Now I'm a bit hesitant to try out the latest
version.
