windows... I have enclosed the log files

Subject: [Bug 323999] Re: Registrer WIA / Choose a Scanner Loop

As a workaround, please try to register manually wiaaut.dll by doing the
following:

Copy the file wiaaut.dll in iCopy folder to C:\WINDOWS\system32\ (if not
already present)
Run a Command Prompt with adiministrator rights
Type cd C:\WINDOWS\system32\ and press Enter
Type regsvr32 wiaaut.dll and press Enter

Status in iCopy - Simple Photocopier: Confirmed

Bug description:
When I stat iCopy I am guided to register WIA:

WIA Automation isn't registered in your system. Click Ves if you want iCopy
to register it for you or No if you don't want to register it. iCopy will be
closed after you click.

When I click yes to register WIA I get a dialog box that states:

Vou have to chose a scanner. Click Ves to chose the scanner, or No to close
iCopy.

When I check Yes, I get the register WIA dialog again.
   WIA Automation isn't registered in your system. Click Ves if you want
iCopy to register it for you or No if you don't want to
   register it. iCopy will be closed after you click.

This repeats indefinetly.

I only have one scanner attached to my computer and it is operational. I can
use Irfanview to scan items. In Irfanview it allows me to select the TWAIN
source. When I access this menu for selection it shows 3 TWAIN sources. The
other two are USB devices that are not currectly connected to my system.

Thanks in advance for your support,

DG
