I'm not sure if this will help, but it seems to fix many of the .NET related problems. Either reinstall .NET or run a repair of .NET.

I've actually had pretty good results from telling .NET to repair the installation through Control Panel, so I would personally recommend that approach first (also ...

Are you by any chance running Flare v6 as administrator? The error message makes think there is a file system permission issue.

Does the problem still occur if you turn off the compatibility setting for the page? (the blue broken page icon in the address bar)

I recently had a similar question about raising the visibility of specific task topics and settled for creating a table of common tasks on the intro page for the first section and included links to the most important task topics. I can't help thinking that giving more ways to find something is ...

I really don't have anything to offer, I'm sorry to say. From bits and pieces in another discussion (http://forums.madcapsoftware.com/viewtopic.php?f=68&t=16660) it sounds as though Madcap changed the way they integrate with source control.

We did have the "A newer version exists on the server" scenario the other day. I thought originally that one of my colleagues had made a change to three ...

I'd be very interested in this as well.

Another possibility, perhaps, is to add Prettify to your project as described in http://www.madcapsoftware.com/blog/2012/08/14/syntax-highlighting-using-prettify-a-syntax-highlighter-by-google/#.

This does give you the ability to format the blocks of code like the <pre></pre> option, but also adds ...

It looks like the only thing we are missing in order to use VS Online is the ability to pass credentials along when we bind to the service. I really do feel this could be a huge benefit to solo writers and small documentation teams. It already is a benefit even with the need to use the stand-alone ...

I posted a feature request to include the option to pass login credentials when binding to source control.

I apologize if this post seems haphazard. I just spent several hours working through many configuration options looking for a smooth solution and thought I would share what I have settled on as a working solution.

In my current gig I am a solo writer supporting an Agile environment. With the ...
