Winscribe DD - Infinity Foot Controls (VEC-USB) no go in TS

Problem: Winscribe 32 bit Terminal Services add-in won’t run under 64 bit.

On Windows 64bit, there is a 32 bit version of Remote Desktop Connection in %SystemRoot%\SysWOW64, running this mstsc.exe will launch the 32 bit process but it will instantly launch the 64-bit mstsc.exe from System32 and shut itself down.

This makes it impossible to run Remote Desktop Connection 32 without modification.

Solution: Rename the 64-bit mstsc.exe from System32 to prevent it from replacing the 32-bit process.

Method1: Run 64 Bit Terminal Services.bat file on affected PC. must be run elevated, in admin mode. File is attached, rename it to .bat before running.

Method2: When renaming mstsc.exe you’ll get a “You require permission from TrustedInstaller to make changes to this file” error. To get past this error, you can take Ownership of the file and give yourself full permissions:

1. Browse to %SystemRoot%\System32

2. Right click mstsc.exe and choose Properties

3. Go to the Security tab

4. Click Advanced

5. Go to the Owner tab

6. Click Edit

7. From the “Change owner to:” list, choose your user name

8. Click OK

9. Go to the Permissions tab

10. Click Change Permissions…

11. Click Add

12. Enter your user name and click OK

13.  Tick the box in the Allow column for Full control

14. Click OK

15. Click OK

16. A Windows Security warning will come up; click Yes to proceed

17. Click OK Now, rename the file mstsc.exe to something like mstsc.exe.bak

Then, you can launch mstsc.exe from %SystemRoot%\SysWOW64 and you will have 32-bit Remote Desktop Connection running.
