W7 and decoding .flac-files
Since downloading W7 yesterday, I am unable to get either of the two programs I use for decoding .flac-files to .wav-files to work. When attempting to use Flac Frontend, I can no longer add files to the client through a drag-and-drop maneuver, as I was able to do with Vista. Adding files by clicking on the desired files does not work either. In the other program, Trader's Little Helper, I'm able to add files by clicking on them, but the program itself has a tendency to freze up and become unresponsive. What's worse, when the client decodes, it responds with the error message, "File is truncated or otherwise corrupt, or has a size of 0 bytes." Any solutions to this problem would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I realize this won't help, but TLH is working ok for me - I installed in with Vista SP1 compatibility byw.

I wonder if you upgrade your Windows Vista to Windows 7 via Upgrade path or Clean Install. Sounds like these two programs are not compatible with Windows 7. Please check the issue on Windows 7 Compatibility Center. I did not find any related information showing that they are compatible with Windows 7. If you still would like to use these two programs on Windows 7, please first uninstall them on your computer via Control Panel\Programs and Features. And then download the lastest version and reinstall them in Windows Vista or Windows XP compatible mode to check the issue. Download link for Flac Frontend Download link for Trader's Little HelperInstall under Windows Vista\XP compatible mode==============================1. Right-click the exe. file and choose Properties.2. Under the Compatibility tab, please check the "Run this program in compatibility mode for" and choose "Windows Vista". (or Windows XP)3. Check the box before Run this program as an Administrator below.4. Click OK to save the settings.5. Follow the instruction to install the driver, and test. If the suggestions above do not help the issue, you can try to look for other similar programs that can realize the same functions provided by Flac Frontend and Trader's Little Helper. Good Luck!
