I just upgraded to Vista Ultimate.

HFS works fine if started manually.

But I like to use FireDaemon Pro to run it as a service.

I like that because if HFS hangs, or if it is closed by accident  FD will restart it.

But now when I run in through FD in Vista It shows as running in FD an also in the services box but the TRAY ICON is not available. I have no way to OPEN the program. So any time i need to make an addition or deletion I need to close the FD service, open HFS manually, then exit it, restart FD to make it available.

Can anyone help me figure this out?

thanks in advance.

it should be a problem in the account under which FD is running HFS.
but that may be a problem related to Vista.
i guess FD staff is more aware and able to help you work it out.

Sevices run on a different level in Vista, they can no more interact with the desktop in any way. It's a security feature that has been changed from XP.
